Hi All,
This is my first post would like some help with my first kit based Lager. I just want to keep it simple as I am very much a beginner. I have a can of Morgans Blue Mountain Lager, a packet of coopers brew enhancer 1 and some Saf 23
I have just set up a old fridge for the task and are confused with the pitching process.
I have a 12g packet of Saf 23 and want to know if its okay to just sprinkle it on top of the wort like I have been doing with my ales (do I need to stir it in?) or do I need to re-hydrate it first. Also, do I need to pitch it at the 12degrees or do I need to do it warmer and then cool it back down after a few hours?
Finally once the beer has finished fermenting and I bottle it, do I need to condition at room temperature, or somthing close to zero and for about how long?
regards,
Adam.
