Hi all,
I am currently fermenting my first lager and there seems to be quite a few different opinions on what exactly to do around here.
I have a bo pills fermenting with s-189 at 12deg, which started off at 1.050. When it got down to 1.013, which only took 6 days I gave it a 2 day D-rest at 18 deg, which I got from the Yeast book (there is no taste of diacetyl in the beer). In that time it has gone down to 1.004 which is a tad lower than expected. Now I am not sure what to do, do I go back down to 12deg for another week and then keg and lager or should I keg now and lager? Not exactly sure what to do?
cheers,
