I have a kegerator and would like to place a cider on tap for a while. I have brewed this one: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f81/apple-bee-woodchuck-clone-90276/ and want to keep some of the sweetness in it so I would like to try to stop it at about 1.010.
I understand that to do this I will need to crash cool it, but if I do and rack it, wont the yeast just wake back up? I know that you are pulling some of the yeast out of it, but I am reading threads from my search about crash cooling and still being able to bottle carb.
If i crash cool it, rack it, and leave it in the kegerator then it wont age very quickly and will just taste green forever wont it?
What is the official way to do this without back sweetening? And I heard that using potassium sorbate changes the taste of the cider which is not very favorable.
