My beloved people,
I just did a lager beer yesterday (a munich dunkel), but instead of pitching the yeast right after the cooling, i just left it alone, in 2 (totally sanitized) vessels - one in my ordinary refrigerator (filled with food and stuff with approximately 6ºC/43ºF) and the small one in a cooler filled with frozen bottles of water and ice (with a roughly constant of 11ºC/52ºF). The reason for that is that my lager-fermenting refrigerator - the one with temperature controllers and everything - is filled with maturating beers, at 3ºC/37ºf. I was expecting a new refrigerator to come today, but apparentely the delivering company ****ed up.
So the question is: should I pitch the yeast now, even if I don't have stable temperature controls, or should I wait a few more days for the new refrigerator? Is there any problem at all to just leave the unfermented wort there for some days, even if the vessels are all completely sealed and sanitized?
