I bottle. If I clarify with gelatin, will there be enough yeast left to carbonate the beer.
Thanks.

Perhaps!?
I would drop in a bit of dry just in case.

This is a good question because I want to try it next. I tried the "crashing" thing in the fridge for one batch. Now I want to try this in another to compare the two for me. That way I'll know what works best for me.

Like Bub said perhaps
There will be enough yeast to carbonate the beer
BUT and its a big BUT
Is I have found it takes a lot longer to carbonate the beer
Due to the lack of viable yeast present
So if your very patient your good to go as you are.
If like the rest of us you dont want to wait 2 months for it to carbonate add some dry yeast as Bub says.

Chipmonk, I say start saving those nuts... you will not BELIEVE what a kegging system will do for your beer. The ability to creatively play with your carbonation both up and down is unreal.
Gee... wonder what the next BN contest will be? I'm thinking you need to start pestering Justin, Chip'!

Push , I think that I am going to have to sue you for damages that you have inflicted upon me. You are dead funny and continually make me bust a gut laughing my ass off. I wonder who the next Brewcaster will be? I will be pestering Justin....
