Cold crashing and bottle carbing?

[spitfire44]

Has anyone had any luck bottle carbing after cold crashing a batch of cider?

I am guessing that the yeast either dies when the temp is too low, but if it's just dormant can it be revived enough to build up some carbonation?


Thanks,

Eric

Read the stick above from CvilleKevin. He has done the exact thing many times.
I gave it a try on my last batch and so far it's been no problem. He has a list of yeast he uses that he says you can cold crash.
I used Nottingham and it has been bottled since Xmas eve.
I fermented it in primary for about 16 days until it hit 1.008. Then I racked it to a secondary and cold crashed it for 2 days. He said to bottle it right from the carboy but I racked it to a bottling bucket first.
So far no bombs i have a couple in plastic bottles to check but I did open one last Friday and it had a slight carb just a bit of a hiss when I popped the top. No head but some bubbles when I poured it in a glass.
Only thing is it just isn't clearing. Hopefully in time this will come.
