I used gelatin in my double ipa and it came out clear as a bell.After two weeks i opend a bottle and there was very little carbonation.The bottles do have some yeast at the bottom.Im wondering if the gelatin dropped out to much of the yeast,if so what do i do?May be im just a nervous Nellie.

What temp do you have the bottles at? Keep them at 70+ and maybe give them a gentle turn upside down once a day for a few days. I’ve heard that high octane brews can take longer to carb. Two weeks is about a minimum for most brews, so you may just need a little more time.

The beer is in a room were the temp. is 68 at night 74 during the day.Also i tried tipping the bottles to move the yeast around.Its a great ipa so i might have to drink it flat. Shirley
I’d give it a week, then try another bottle.
I think your higher ABV is taking longer. You aren’t going to strip enough yeast out of suspension with just gelatin. Like the others said, move them to somewhere warm, invert them daily, and give it a week.
