Hey everyone!
So I want to try lagering, I think it'd be awesome if I could actually pull it off. Now I don't have an extra fridge or anything to lager it in or ferment at the colder temps, but I do live in canada and fall is rapidly approaching so I was thinking of wrapping my primary in a blanket and leaving it outside in the cold for fermentation, transferring it to a secondary and then putting it back outside.
Is the slow drop in temp really important, or can I just leave it outside and see what happens? In the end, I'll probably give it a try and see what happens, but I wonder if anyone else has tried this.
Cheers!
