Cloudy Liebfraumilch

I am making Liebfraumilch from a kit and instead of it being white and clear it is cloudy and about the color of Apple Juice. It is about 4 weeks since I started it and has been quiet in a carboy for about one week.

Am I doing something wrong or will it clear up in time?

    I think you have some time yet since it usually takes a while for the yeast to settle (the apple juice color is the suspended yeast).

    Depending on the temperature, a 3 week primary fermentation could be a little fast. Have you taken a specific gravity reading at the start? If so, you probably want to take another one now to see whether you're getting close to completion or you have a stuck fermentation. Based on that, you will have a better idea if time alone will take care of it.
