I recently brewed up an extract Kolsch kit from Northern .
Recipe:
FERMENTABLES
--1 lb Pilsen dry malt extract (60 min)
--6 lbs Pilsen malt syrup late addition (15 min)
HOPS & FLAVORINGS
--1 oz Tradition (60 min)
--1 oz Hersbrucker (30 min)
YEAST
Safale US-05 Ale Yeast. Optimum temp: 59°-75° F
I cooled down to 58° and pitched. Placed in basement and temps of ferm rose to 64° during ferm activity and have now cooled down to 60-62°. Its been 4 weeks since brew day. I havent taken any FGs but will when I bottle.
So, since this beer is bigger than the ones Ive already made (OG 1.050) and Im fermenting in cooler temps than usual .how long should I wait to bottle?
