Hi all,
At present I have a coopers brewmaster selection Pilsner which I brewed with saflager S-23 yeast. It was in the primary for 8 days before I transferred it to the secondary, where it has been for 5 days. It has been at 1020SG for 3 days now. OG was about 1064. On the last SG test I took a good whif and ahd a little taste. It was extremely fruity.
My questions are
1. will this fruity taste dissipate?
2. What are diacetyl rests and do i need to do one with a lager?
3. What is lagering?
4. Should I bottle it?
Regards
