I have a question regarding finnings. As I understand it finnings are added to the fermenter towards the end of the fermentation process to clarify the brew and to help solidify the sediment. I have used a few different brands of finnings and they have differing instructions as to when and how to add them to the brew.
I have added the finnings in previous brews in the following ways:
1. dissolved in 1 cup of warm water and added to the brew towards the end of fermentation at around 1.010.
2. added directly to the brew once fermentation has ceased and allowed one day or so before bottling.
Both brews are still maturing and I have one going now.
Could anyone assist in some advice as to the best method?
thanks
