I cold-crashed with gelatin for about 35 hours (usually I'm impatient and only do 20 hours or so). My usual method results in a fairly clear bottle, which goes crystal clear in the bottle in about a week, at which point I start to drink the beers with good carbonation, although not 100% carbonated yet.
The red/brown whatever it is (I'm going with English brown ale style) is perfect so far. Fermentation went as planned, it's carbing nicely in the bottles, and the colour is perfect. It was a bit more hazy than I'm used to, even at 35 hours of cold-crashing, but it looks like it's clearing up nicely in the bottles, and the colour is awesome! (did I mention that before?)
I like to do tasting when I can - usually before fermenting, and then at bottling, and both were great, and this might be the best tasting I've made, at bottling time. It's strongly malty, malt bitterness, and not an overpowering flavour of hops. Most suitable for my taste preference. The weather has been a bit chilly lately, so I might need to wait two weeks before a tester, and I can't wait! I so hope this beer doesn't have that metallic taste. I didn't taste it at all at bottling time, so that's a good sign. I'm going to test this one cold, and not so cold - maybe 10 degrees...
