So I did not detect the diacetyl in my latest wheat beer until it was already in the keg and carbed (I was overconfident and did not taste at every step - lesson learned).
Here is my question, I have unhooked the keg and I am letting it warm to room temp. Since I obviously did not do a long enough diacetyl rest prior to kegging, can I just take this carbed keg and put it in my fermentation chamber for a few weeks? There should be plenty of yeast left, but do I need to do something to "wake them" so they can clean up this funk?
Thanks in advance.
