i just brewed an alt using a long trail ale recipee:
8 0z munich
8 oz malted wheat
8 oz meddium crystal
6 pounds light dme
8 aaus tettnag
1007 german ale yeast
the recipee says to ferment for two weeks 62-65 and then cold condition in the secondary at 40 degrees for 3-4 weeks
my cold conditing is going to be at about 58 (coldest spot in the house)
What will the warmer secondary do to the beer i know alts are lagered but i used the german ale yeast. Im not looking for an exact clone of the longtrail so if the taste is slightly different thats not a big deal. If it will result in a bad taste i guess ill find someway to get it colder.
