I am not very familiar with lager brewing but I am planning to brew a Vienna Lager soon. My question is about using the cold crash guardian. My brew is around 20 liters and my bladder is around 20 l.
My fear is about the gaseous sulfur by-products. Since they will probably be stored with the CO2 in the bladder, I am afraid that they will be reabsorbed by the beer during cooling.
Has anyone already experimented with this device with a lager and what is the feedback?
Isn't there a favorable moment during fermentation to fill the bladder during which we produce mainly CO2 and few sulfur compounds? Since it only takes about 1 hour to fill it, we could choose this moment to fill it and then close its valve to let the other gaseous compounds produced evacuate out of the fermentation vessel.
