I have been brewing ales for awhile now, but decided to try lagering my Dad's old recipe. I reached my FG after 3 weeks at the recommended temp of the yeast that I used and took another reading at week 4 with the same results.
I transfered into my lagering carboy and have maintained the same temperature for a week now. I have noticed that about 1/2" of trub has settled in the secondary. Is this normal or should I consider racking again before I start dropping my temps down? I intend to lager for a month and then bottle.
I can't recall the exact yeast used bute it was a standard American lager from safale, recommended fermenting temp of 48-56F.
Cheers!
