Just like that. It'll likely clear up more after a few weeks in the keg.

If that's a festabrew, it might just be like that. I know the two festas i did had a bit of turbidity, but they were fine to drink.

If it was Festa, it should clear up in the keg in a couple weeks, if that's important to you. Looks great like it is!

Looks bang on to what I serve (no fining agents). If you want to clear it up quickly you can try using Gelatin or another fining agent if you aren't happy with the appearance.

Can I still add fining agents were its carbed now?

Honestly I've never used fining agents, so I'd have to let someone else comment. I'm still fairly new to kegging and brewing myself.

I wouldn't do that now. Don't sweat it, it looks perfectly fine from here.

Thanks for your help and input.. Really appreciate it. Pretty new at this and really enjoy it.

Or as I read in another thread... Which worked when I hosted a family get together.

Good stuff. I think when we all start out, very clear beer is high on the check list. Myself, I found chasing that carrot was a waste of time, and the finished product was easily as good, and in some cases probably better, than if I had filtered/fined it.

Personally I want to try and clear mine to see if it helps with the gas. Homebrew makes me fart way too much. I don't seem to get it off cleared beers. I am thinking if I reduce the haze going in, I may get lucky and reduce the haze going out.
