Greetings all,
I have a question. I am brewing a 500 Liter batch of an American Brown Ale which is now in the Cold crashing phase. Yesterday as i was pulling a sample off of the side port of the conical a small air bubble
made it´s way into the conical and just so slightly bubble to the top . I understand the vacumm effect that cuased this. Given that we are always trying to keep oxygen out of the picture after fermentation as stopped. Does this little air bubble pose a big treat to the brew? The beer was sitting at 2C when it happened. OG 1.061 now to 1.017. I used Safale 04 and fermented at 18C for ten days before pulling the yeast.
Thans for any wisdom that i may recieve.
Cheers
