Product details

Gelatin Finings clears beer and wine by causing the particles to coagulate and settle. This fining agent can also reduce astringency by removing tannin. Use up to 1 teaspoon per 5 gallons. You can aid the clearing process by cold crashing your beer & wine.

How to Clear Your Beer with Gelatin

  1. In a sanitized measuring cup add 1/4 to 1/2 cup cold water.
  2. Sprinkle 1/2 tsp of gelatin over water, let sit.
  3. Wait 10-15 mins for gelatin to dissolve/bloom.
  4. Heat water to 145-155°F. Short 5-10sec bursts in the microwave works well.
  5. Stir well, add to fermenter or keg. If kegging you can store cold to help increase clearing speed.
  6. Allow 24-48 hours to clear.

It’s slow and isn’t quite flavorless, but it works.

Took about 4.5-5 weeks before my test lager finally dropped crystal clear (it takes 5-6 weeks naturally). Also sensed a bit of a flavor coming from it, but it faded after about 6 or 7 pints were poured. Eventually though, the beer did drop crystal clear and tasted great...for about 10 pints and then the keg went dry.

Great Experience wit Northern Brewers, but...

...not sure I did it right. Seemed to have no impact on my clarity. My kolsch was very cloudy. Still tasted fine. Just cloudy.

Exactly as advertised

The gelatin powder is well packaged, and after a bit of boiling (or heating >180F for a few minutes) then cooled off, works as advertised to fine cloudiness in beer or mead. Settling the mixture in the cold works better to sediment out yeast and protein haze than cold alone. No taste changes are noted.

Saving for a lighter brew than what I am making right now. Comes in a bag, not a jar.
