ok..thursday is the day...first go at a lager - I've got my WLP830 charging up a starter as I type. While I quite clear about the actual brewing process, its from the pitch onward I have a few questions needing clarification. It's my understanding that
- I want to pitch around 10-11 ºC (50-53 ºF) - ok, so after immersion, hit the cold chamber to get that low...can do
- around 15-20 days in, a Diacetyl Rest around 18-19ºC (65-67ºF) -- so increase temp for couple days
- day 21-50 , slowly Drop temp to 1-3ºC (32-35F)
- day 50? keg and put on gas (10psi?)
- 5-10 days .....serve
