Just laid down a brew using Fermentis Saflager S23. I have a fridge and fridgemate. Have been reading that kit yeasts are not really lager yeasts and have to be brewed at 17-18 degrees. Is this so for Saflager S23 because I have mine @ 11.
Hi and I'm a 6 brew 'veteran' who thought he knew everything until tasting this summers first ale!!!
Started off last summer with ales and they were yuk! Soapy!
Brewed 4 lagers in winter and they turned out great - used Xtract lager from country brewer - v happy - bitter finish and clean taste...
