I have a kolsch that I brewed a month ago, 8 days primary and about three weeks secondary. All of the fermentation was at about 58 except the last two days of primary were at 68.
I bottled it three days ago and it was crystal clear, still is today. When I look at the bottles there is no sediment on the bottom.
Do you think that there is still some amount of yeast lurking about? Enough to carbonate?
I never thought that I would worry about a beer being too clear but yet here I am.
just in case you are curious here is the recipe:
Extract
5lb pale LME
2lb wheat extract
.5lb 10l crystal
willemmette and saaz hops
Wyeast kolsch 2565
thanks
