Hello,
So I made my first lager 2 days ago (AHS Sam Adams Lager Clone) and now im worried I did a few things wrong. I pitched the yeast when the wort temp was about 69-70F. I then left it there till the next morning, where i moved it to the coldest place I could find in the house which is about 55....yes i know I should have done more research before I bought a lager.
After reading some other threads I am now worried about diacetyl's. My question is that once fermentation is done can I move the carboy to a warmer area till the remainder of the 4 weeks? say about 62F?
Will that help with the diacetyl?
Thanks for the help.
