Hey everyone I live in Australia and I'm having some trouble tracking down rice malt I'm a big fan of asahi and would like to make a clone. Is rice malt easily made from scratch? Also does anyone have a decent asahi clone? Cheers

I pitched it at 50f put my wort in the fridge till it was 50f

Would it be advisable to cold crash after a diacetyl rest then move to a clean fermenter for the lager period?

Sweet cheers for that I'll give it a go

I have had yeast go dormant on me before primary just keeping it mid range the whole time. Does diacetyl resting help that? I'd just be worried about going above the recommended temperature and putting unwanted flavour in the beer?

I use lager yeast the little freeze dried packets and they have an optimal performance range which is usually something like 10-15 degrees Celsius (50-60f). I converted an old fridge into a lager fridge with a brewing thermostat so tempreture control isn't an issue. Is it best to have it set as...

Definitely not a bot haha just new

Cheers I had a read up on cold crashing last night I was going to give it a go. Do you reckon it would be best to cold crash than larger or the other way around?

It said failed to post so I posted it again when in fact it had already posted

For the typos I'm not the best at grammar.

I'm using the phone app and it likes to post it twice.

I've read quite a few articles and alot of people are torn on weather racking is bad I haven't tried it but I was planning to with my current batch and than larger it in a different fermenter for about 4 weeks. What do you mean by cold crash what does that achieve? Cheers

G'day I did a 12L boil and topped up with cold water to 23L

I boiled 12L and topped it up after I added to fermenter
