I've got a corny setup.
I'm trying to move to more advanced techniques and on my last brew I went into a secondry for 5 days before kegging. For the last 2 days I put the secondary in the fridge and once cold used gelatin to aid clearing. I'm not actually sure that the gelatin made that much difference to be honest but it only had about 36 hrs to do the job before I kegged it. I needed beer for a party.
My question:
Because the corny keg only holds 19.5 litres, I always have about 3 750ml bottles left which I have been bottling and keeping sort of a dairy of brews. This time I did it after cold crashing. Does cold crashing which I believe makes yeast dormant stop my carbination in the bottles and should I bottle the 3 tallies before cold crashing in future?
