I wonder if you can offer me any advice. I have a coopers euro lager in a fridge at around 18C for ~16days. i don't have a 'lagering' container and was just going to bottle it. should i 'cold crash' it in the fridge when i think it's ready, then bottle? if i did, what temperature and for how long, and once it's in the bottles do I bring it backup to 13-18 for carbonation? never done a lager, never cold-crashed.... i'm tempted to leave it in there for another week before doing anything, seems like most people are doing at least 3 weeks for a lager - but i don't know at what temp. i have a hydro, but i find it a little difficult to get consistent readings.
hmmm, not 100% sure here because I don't know exactly what sort of yeast is in the coopers kit..
... and leave them alone for a week or three or 4.
