Lager 1 week per 8 gravity points.
That's OG, not FG, correct? Just want to be sure.
Right. So, for a 1.060 lager, I will lager for one week for every 8-10 points of OG. So in that case, I would lager for 6-8 weeks.
Jesus. Probably about a week to ferment, 2 days for a diacetyl rest, 8 weeks to lager, 3+ weeks to bottle condition...my Oktoberfest is going to take FOREVER before I drink any...
It'll make for a nice Christmas / New Year's beer.
thought i would throw this out here,while in a lagering discussion. Ive noticed on a brewing calc because of the temp that you prime alot less, well i did this as suggested because of a ending temp of 45 degrees ,but am worried about it not carbonating enough. Do you really need this adjustment to bottle prime/, because ive seen tons of recipes saying to bottle prime just the same as you would any ale.Using a brew calc with these temps says to use alot less.
