These are from a batch a few months ago. I've been working on my filtering process to get pulp out. There's a pretty big tradeoff that comes with clarity. The taste and texture suffer a lot.
After the pictured batch I did an experiment involving two simultaneous small batches. In one I pre-strained as much pulp out as I could and used a decent amount of pectic enzyme. In the other I did no clarification effort at all.
The first was OK. A little thin. A tiny bit off from oxygen exposure from handling it so much.
The second, thick one was undrinkable. The yeast cling's to pulp and is very noticeable in the taste.
So my recent efforts are to try to land in a stable spot somewhere in between. Ferment on the lees, then strain and filter in one pass if possible. So far I'm not having luck properly getting the fruit fibre out.
There's a ton of wasted space between posts and comments that wasn't there before. We are way over 50% of the entire screen being blank space. I have screenshots or earlier versions with a much tighter look.
