    Carbonating lager question

    First lager fermentation help

    Yes it was a 11g packet of dry lager yeast, I did aerate the wort and the SG was 1.055, I guess I will hold out for a few days in the hope that it starts to ferment. Thanks for your help, I will be moving the brew to a more suitable location. Jamie Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew
