Hi,
Have a 25L batch of Hefeweizen in the fermenter, OF 1.050, FG, 1010 atm, fermentation stopped a few days ago, so its really just sitting in primary (currently 10 days from brew day).
I pitched Munich yeast, fermentation was insane, and done in 3 days, it was spitting out yeast that was clogging the airlock, had to clean it out several times with vodka.
Question is:
How much longer should i leave it on the yeast cake, or can i just bottle it up tonight? (i kept some wort for carbing, don't worry, I won't be adding sugar ye germans).
i fermented low at 14C (57F) for all but the last two days, and let it come up to 17C (62) naturally, where it is now.
Can i bottle this bad boy, or will it benefit from more time on the yeast?
(Was a 50/50 pilsner + wheat grain bill)
