Going to bottle my first cold crashed batch tonight and want to make sure I'm getting the amount of priming sugar right.
I'm holding my 2.5 gallons of beer at ~34F. It's been there ~4 days and got hit with gelatin ~24 hours ago. When I enter my values into tastybrew's priming calculator it tells me I need to use ~1.1oz of 75% DME (I use Breiss Pilsner DME to prime) to get to 2.1 volumes CO2.
I'm used to bottling around 70F so this works out to about 1/3rd of the DME I'm used to using. Does anyone have any experience bottling after cold crashing? If so, do the TastyBrew numbers sound accurate? I'm sending some of these brews out so I want to make sure they're carbed properly.
