I'm in the process of doing my first lager attempt, an American Lager. Its been in the fermentation chamber for a week with the Ranco set to stay between 50-55 degrees. I was thinking of starting a diacetyl rest on Friday night and racking to a secondary on Sunday.
My question is this, I usually rack straight from my primaries into corny kegs where they age, carbonate and then are served. There is a bit of sediment that is released when I first tap the keg but not a big deal. So I'd like to do the same with the lagers and just lager for a month in the corny kegs. Is there anything wrong with this approach. I try to keep my process simply and would prefer to not have to go with a 3 vessel approach (primary, secondary, corny).
