I cold crashed my beer in the chest freezer down to 43 to drop out the yeast before transferring into the keg. Well at some point while it was cooling it decided to suck up the water out of the container and about a half gallon of it is sitting on top of the beer.
It's clearly separated having not mixed together hardly at all. Can this beer still be salvaged? If I leave it in the fermentation chamber, not mix it up by moving it and transfer most of it until it gets down to the water into a bottling bucket (prob 4 gal more or less) will it still be safe? Or is this just a loss? I could also throw it in a keg.. thoughts????
