Hi,
I found many videos and articles about pseudo lagers. So basically the idea is that you can brew lager real fast In pressure with elevated temperature and instead of lagering, you flockulate/clear the beer with gelatin or something similar and thus you can brew lager In 2 weeks
According to these sources they claim that it does all the same things than In traditional lagering. Wouldnt that mean that lagering only clears out the beer and everything about yeast digesting side products is just BS?
So my question is, is there any scientific proof or sources that yeast does anything while lagering? And no it isnt a proof if it is mentioned In any cult like status gained brewing book.
PS: My experience of lagering is that the taste really gets better In time but i do not know If its just the beer clearing out.
