OK, so i'm ready to bottle a batch of Dr Smurto TTL (modified partial mash recipe). It was in primary for 1 week, then I racked to secondary with gelatine finings. Its been there for a week and SG is steady at 1012. Now I'm keen to make the best beer I've ever made and want to try crash chilling before bottling to get the beer as clear as possible (I've never tried this and most of my beers are a bit cloudy, except for stout which is probably cloudy but so dark I can't tell). So a few questions if anyone can help:
- what temp should I aim for?
- how long should I keep beer cold?
- will there be enough yeast left for bottle conditioning? Will carbonatioon take longer due to less yeast in each bottle?
thanks for good advice!
