OK - another one from me. I think I'm fine, but wanted to get your input.
I pitched a Wyeast 2565 Kolsch about 4 weeks ago. After 1 week in the primary I racked to a glass carboy secondary and it's been there since. Here's the thing... I cooled the secondary to around 50-52 degrees for two weeks to attempt a cold conditioning. After two weeks I brought it back up to room temperature and it 'started' to ferment again (evidenced by steady airlock activity). I kept it for this last week at room temp and it's still bubbling away, mind you at slower intervals.
I obviously can't bottle now, but won't be able to get to it till after the holidays - another two weeks. Is a total of 6 weeks (5 weeks in secondary off the primary trub) too long or am I OK? From what I've read it most definitely is, but wanted to be sure.
Thanks everyone!
