I'm doing a five gallon Dopplebock today that's got an OG of about 1.080 and I'll be lagering it at about 50 degrees for two weeks.
I've never done a "big lager" before and am curious if I'm going ot get really aggressive fermentation and should use a blow off tube or whether the reduced lagering temp will keep it under control and a regular air lock will work.
I guess I should use the blow off tube to be safe but I'll have to move a bunch of stuff around in my fermentation fridge.
