Hi there,

Used turbo clear A and B in 25ltr bucket. When syphoning the wash is still cloudy? What have i done wrong?

Welcome mate, moved your post here as it’s your first.

Big question is why do you feel the need to use turbo clear? Reckon 99% of members here don’t waste their money on it.

G'day mate and welcome aboard :greetings-waveyellow:

The more you hang around here the more you'll realize you won't need that stuff or the turbo kit from the home brew shop but to try help with your current problem... I have no idea cause ive never used it but if I was to guess I would say you may have disturbed the sediment in the bottom maybe while siphoning or it may have just been a dud or the wash may not have been finished.

Good luck :handgestures-thumbupleft:

When you put part A in, you stir vigorously. Part B, just tip it, no stirring. did you stir it up when you put part B in?

Thanks for comments guys. I probably did disturb the sediment. I just cleared it off the surface.

What's the alternative to turbo clear?

It will settle out itself after a few days. Hopefully you intend to try something other than a turbo (if you use them) as they have too many chems in them. Contribute to an off taste.
Read the beginners section. Cant stress that enough.
