I have a Classica american pale ale. Its been in the primary for a week so far. I plan On waiting an extra week or so beyond what the recipe said (which was 1 week) and then I want to cold crash it to clear it up some more.
1. Is it worth it with this type of beer?
2. How long should I do it for?
3. Do I have to bring it back to a higher temp then bottle ?
4. will the cold temp affect adding DME for carbonation prior to bottleing?
5. Should I boil the dme in the water before adding it to the bucket? I believe thats the proper way; then add it hot? Or let it cool then add?
sorry for so many simple questions, and thanks ahead of time.
also how much water to the 1 cup of dme for carbonation?
