Hi all
It seems that lagering and a 2yo son don't sometimes work together.
I had a Harp Lager clone in a fridge/freezer 8 days into primary. I discovered that my son had gotten to the temperature control knob, and cranked it all the way down. It was fine 2 days ago but this morning it's frozen solid.
I guess this is crash cooling taken to the extreme!!
I'm not one for throwing away beer and the mad scientist in me wants to see the result.
What do you think I can expect? I would guess at the very least that the yeast would come out completely and would require a small amount of yeast pitching for bottle conditioning.
Or should I just toss the whole lot and start again?
