Fridge Space, Prorities & Best Laid Plans....

[Velophile]

Here's the problem, I have a secondary jerry & a primary ready to pitch. Both won't fit in my brew fridge at once.

The jerry has an APA just racked into it. This is my first AG (Yay!) & has been in the fridge steady at 18c. The primary is the last of the kits I had & will be a Raspberry Blonde (once racked onto the raspberrys).

The questions;

Is it more important to hold the temp constant at the start of fermentaion?

Will raising the temp after racking alter (ie bugger up) the APA?

What's the longest river in Africa?

:unsure:

The answer is to get more fridges.. I have 4 and I know I am on the lower side compared to some.


Is it more important to hold the temp constant at the start of fermentaion? YES

Will raising the temp after racking alter (ie bugger up) the APA? NO, not as imporant as no.1

What's the longest river in Africa? Nile

Brew On!

Yes, thanks Sluggerdog. My fresh brew is in the fridge. Maybe I'll look for another fridge, or a bigger one.


The quote in my sig line is from Bambi Lee Savage - DEMON ALCOHOL

It's half past two and I got that thirst
Last night's pleasure, this mornin's curse
There's nothin' nicer than a drink in time
When ya hear the call, when ya hear the call
When ya hear the call of demon alcohol

Demon demon demon alcohol
Your kiss is so sweet I think I'm headed for a fall
Demon demon demon alcohol
When I can't walk I can always crawl to you

Mercy me I need a drink and how
I need a hair of the dog right now
There's nothin' better than a drinkin' hole
When ya hear the call, when ya hear the call
When ya hear the call of demon alcohol

Hey bartender give me one more beer
And then I swear I'll get on outta here
I done my best to stay away tonight
But then I heard the call, then I heard the call
Then I heard the call of demon alcohol...

The things you find when you use the search function...

I find myself wanting to evict my APA from the brew fridge in favour of a new tenant. I figure that if the majority of the fermentation is done, any effect of less than perfect temperature must be slight - assuming the temp of the secondary doesn't go spastic.

It's too soon after the purchase of my current brewfridge to apply to the financial controller for another one.

This thread has given me increased confidence. I can see the fermentation schedule now:

Overnight in primary.
Two weeks in secondary.
Bottle conditioned overnight.
Crash chilled.

No. It was sort of a joke. Sorry. I am not very good at them. (I've added a smiley or two to my post to illustrate.)
