I have a holiday ale that has spent 1 week in primary and now 3 weeks in a glass secondary. When I racked to secondary I added 1/2 gallon apple cider and there was a smaller fermentation that took place. Subsequently there is about a 1 inch yeast cake in the bottom of the secondary. I was thinking about possibly getting this beer off of the secondary cake and into another fresh fermenter. Do you think there will be any issues or off flavors if I leave this brew on the smaller secondary cake for another month or so before bottling or should I risk infection and get it to a fresh carboy to clear some more?
