Fiesta Brew - Pasteurized Brewer's Wort - Brewers Yeast

Your continental pilsner looks to be done primary fermentation, which means you probably missed the window for a diacetyl rest. Give it a taste, if you taste diacetyl, lager it a couple weeks longer than you would have. Hopefully most of it dissipates.

The blonde lager looks about right to do a diacetyl rest, if not slightly late. I'd get it warmed up now (if it needs a d-rest).

Cool, I will sample both and start warming up the room.

Should I just leave the continental pilsner in there anyways so it warms at the same rate as the Blonde?

Thanks for the follow-up...

Yeah, what the heck... can't hurt it.

Hey man... Thanks...

Drew 2 samples, 1 from the continental pilsner and one from the blonde lager...

Both tasted FANTASTIC!!! A little more carbonation and a tad bit colder and I swear you could just drink it now!

What I have noticed from this beer and from my brown ale is that these samples were clear as water, where the Brown Ale has yeasties floating around... is this because of the type of yeast used? or because its a lager?

Anyways, no slippery or buttery taste whatsoever. Very happy with the result so far :rockin:
