I am having issues dialing in our Biofine process. I have tried several methods to dose the unitank with no real success.Here is my process:
Harvest yeast
Crash tank to 33 F
2 Days after crash, I dose by pulling from sample port to a tee and drive in Biofine, 120mL/bbl via co2 at pump inlet
I dose slowly over 45 minutes, wit the racking arm pointed up and 45 degree angle away from sample port.
After mixing, I bubble co2 gently through the racking arm periodically throughout the day.
I take samples the next day, and each subsequent day, from the sample port in 25mL cylinders. They all drop crystal clear within 24hrs. The issue I'm having is the tank is not clearing. even after 4-5 days from fining, the beer in transfer is quite cloudy.I'm using 30bbl unitanks for both ferment and cold crash. Any ideas on how to fix these issues are greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
