    First time lager help

    I'm doing a lager for the first time with an Oktoberfest and was curious about when to do the diacetyl rest. I'm using White Labs Oktoberfest yeast. I pitched a little warm at 60F but lowered to 52F. Also, when do I rack to secondary?

    Assembling and testing my new stuff

    Finished assembling my MLT and HLT and tested them today. Aside from a tiny leak in the HLT all is well. I just need to pick up a new kettle and a propane burner and I'll be finished putting my AG brewery together, unless I overlooked something.
