Help please?
I have put a fresh wort kit from Craftbrewer down on the 20th of July. I thought that I could ferment it for 3 weeks then dry hop in the keg for 5 days. Don't ask why I thought I could do this I don't know.
So after reading the Racking Article I have began to panic as it states that "if you wish to ferment your beer longer than say 10 days, moving the beer off the yeast cake will reduce the risk of autolysis, a process whereby yeast cells, having consumed all other available food, begin to metabolise each other, creating a foul taste"
Does that mean I have screwed it up?
Thanks in advance, Ben
