I am doing a lager it has been on the primary for 12 days at 50 F. There is still a nice layer of brown Krausen on the top, it is bubbling about every 8 to 10 seconds.
I was going to take a gravity reading, but thought the brown layer on top should have fallen first.
Should I wait for a few more days for the krausen to drop off the top (not sure if there is a set amount of days before I should do the Diacetyl rest) or should I just go ahead and do a diacetyl rest (raising the temperature slowly to 68 F)?
