G'day Alls,
I've just got back into homebrew, with my first kit brew approaching bottling time.
The fermentation process has been controlled at a nice 21 degrees with the aid of a tempmate, a fridge and a light globe.
The question I have comes to the bottle conditioning. I was thinking of placing the bottles in the fermentor fridge for a week or two, keeping them at 21 degrees, along with the fermentor for the next brew.
Knowing that UV/sunlight effects homebrew beer, does the light produced by a standard incandescent globe effect the beer?
Should I be avoiding placing my bottles in fermentor fridge?
Would placing a coloured party light globe make a difference?
If it does effect the beer in bottles, would it be effecting the beer during primary fermentation?
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks
Murray
