Greetings. To date I have only done Ale style (yeast) brews mainly due to the fact I had no real method to keep temps low unless I used my kegerator. But, that is used for serving and kept around 40F. I am in SC so we have no real stable, cooler temps to consider.
I recently bought a Thermo Star temp controller and am also buying a chest type freezer. The 15 cu ft layout is perfect for arranging a series of FV's, carboys or kegs side by side. In short, my equipment is lining up.
I want to formulate a "game plan" that stages my beers in the proper temperature sequence. With that said, can someone suggest an easy reference that outlines my basic timelines for lager fermenting, resting, lagering..etc. Basically an overview of a generic lager beer production and associated temps?
THANKS!!!
