I've been seeing the process " cold crashing" mentioned a lot here and am unclear about what it means. Tried to search but couldn't get an understanding of its purpose. I am currently dry hopping a Citra pale ale. I forgot to add the irish moss to help clear it. When I added the hops for dry hopping I checked the the beer temp and it was @ approx 72* and the SG was at 1.012. When /how and do I need to "cold crash" this beer? I need to double check the SG on Friday as this will be the 5th day of dry hopping and I plan on bottling it on Sunday so any suggestion on how to proceed would be welcomed.Thanks in advance!!!
