I'm yet to get a keg setup, so I'm still doing the bottling thing. One thing I've noticed is that beers that have spent some time in secondary, whether it be lagering or not, will take ages to condition in the bottle - because most of the yeast has dropped out of suspension and very little makes it in to the bottles to feast upon the priming sugars.
Can you be too effective in the pursuit of bright beer? Can you completely remove yeast from a brew with an extended stay in secondary, cool or room temperature?
Does anyone pitch another yeast to perform bottle conditioning? I'm planning to do a pilsner soon that'll have an extended lagering period, and am worried about bottle conditioning after this.
