I'm going to brew tomorrow, and I planned on setting the Ranco to 60°F using a Wyeast 1056 American ale yeast. How long should I keep it at that temp? Just until the fermentation is done? Or leave it in there for a week or so?
Here is my plan: Put the primary in the chest freezer set at 60°F until fermentation is complete. Then, raise the temperature to 65°F for a week. Rack the beer to my secondary, keeping it at room temps to clear for a week. This should put me at about three weeks, then off to bottle. Sound good?
