No. Once you put your brew in the fridge, the yeasties that eat the sugar go dormant. If it's still sweet after that long, you'll have to warm condition (wake up the yeast) again and then cold condition again. Though doing that may introduce off-flavors.

Hi Bill and Jeff... sorry I never looked back at this before! No, I used to work at a truck parts store whose initials were CB and my name is Mike so a few of my customers started calling me CB Mike. Waaaaay back when I created my first AOL account CBMike was taken so I went with cbmikey. It's...

Welcome Chiguy! I just joined about 10 minutes ago myself.
