Brewed an extract Hefeweizen with Wyeast 3068 Weisenstephan Weizen yeast. I know hefes are supposed to be cloudy but this is my first time using a low-flocculating yeast.
It's been in the fermentor (glass carboy) 3 weeks and tastes fabulous; the last gravity sample appeared clear. I guess I'm worried about stirring up yeast when I rack to my bottling bucket. Am I worrying too much or should I cold crash it first? If I cold crash is there any reason I shouldn't rack to my bottling bucket before putting it in the refrigerator?
Edit: It is at final gravity.
