Hi All,
Sorry if this is in the wrong area, I tried a search and founf not too much so I will ask the question.
Cold Conditioning? How, when and Why?
So for I have onlt kegged two brews, both have been from primmary to Ferm after 8 days, I know I should rack but I was impatient to get it up and running, so now the next brew I have going I want to do 100%/
here is waht I have.
Coopers Pale Ale, 1.5kg Coopers Light liquid malt extract, 1 KG light dry malt
US56 yeast, been in primary now for thee days, still bubbleing away SG started at 1.070.
I just checked th SG, it is sitting on 1.034 after three dyas at 22-23 geg C in a cool box filled with ice bricks
Plan to rack tommorow day 4 and leave for 7 days.
then Cold Condition?
My fridge can fit 6 cornies + some largies, or 4 cornies and a "jeery Can" for cold conditioning, can someone please run me through what I should be doing next to get this brew ready for the keg.
I have thought about adding some cooled boiled water when I rack to drop the ALC content as by my calcs I could end up with an 8% brew, thoughts.
Thanks all
