Hey guys. Finally got around to doing my first brew that came with my homebrew kit need a little bit of help after doing abit of reading on the forums.
It's a Crown lager style that came with the kit.
It's a blue mountain lager with brewblend No.15 (1kg), pride of Ringwood hops and sadly get S-23 yeast.
Before I pitched the yeast I took a reading of 1.060. Instructions said pitch below 30*c and I pitched at around 28*c
It's in my fermentation fridge set at 20*c (instructions say between 18*c-24*c) and been going for 7 days and still slowly bubbling out the airlock. Now I've been reading homebrewtalk forum as that's what came up in my google search and it says I need to "lager" my beer after it has fermented for between 2 weeks to a month at 3-7*c. My instructions that came with my homebrew kit has no mention of this and says should bottle once the OG is settled for around 2 days... Is "lager" that they are referring to just another word for cold crashing?
I'm lost and any tips or help would be greatly appreciated
