I started my first Lager two weeks ago. I am excited to finally have space to maintain a couple of carboys at lagering temperatures, but I have a quick question.
The instructions I received said to ferment for two weeks at about 50 degrees, then to lager for a couple months at around 40-42 degrees.
Should I rack the beer into another carboy at this point? The only fermentation vessel I have available is a bucket, so I would rather just leave it in the carboy -- unless of course that would have a negative effect on the beer.
Thanks for any advice!
