    Cold crash and bottle.. couple questions

    I have a couple questions about how you do it.. After cold crashing, do you let the beer comes to room temp before bottling? Do you transfer to a bottling bucket? Do you put dextrose boiled in water directly in the beer, stir and then bottle? What temp do you account for the dextrose amount...
