Hello, I have been away from homebrewing for a small amount of time and in the spirit of the new year I have started brewing every 2 weeks. But this is a side note.
I have been working on a session beer and it's close to time for a crash cool. Since I am in Ohio, current weather would allow me to stick my carboy in the garage and be on my way. (It's also worth noting I want to start my secondary crash cooling so I can get my primary of the same beer up to 80ish degrees) My problem with the garage tactic is I am currently living with my brother and parents who all smoke in the garage. I couldn't locate any information on whether or not this will affect the beer. So I am asking here: If I stick my secondary carboy in the garage will the cigarette smoke affect the flavor? I would rather KNOW than try and learn the hard way. Thanks guys!
