I tried searching for this, so I apologize if it's already been brought up before.
Two weeks ago I brewed Ed's Haus Ale and a nut brown on back to back days. Ed's recipe calls for 14 days in the primary, then he crash cools and kegs (I think?). I did this with the nut brown as well.
My question: Does crash-cooling too early inhibit the cleanup process of the yeasties since they are dropping out of the beer? Will my beer still "clean up" and mature in the keg even w/ only 14 days primary and no true secondary?
