S-23

[horner34]

I have a packet of s-23 that I am thinking of using in my first attempt at a lager.

I'm going to brew a honey pils that I will ferment at 12c, but i've only got a bar fridge that is used for drinks, so i was going to regulate that fridge at 4c and lager for 4 weeks.

Will this temp be too low for the s-23 and if so what yeast do you think I should use.

I look forward to you're feed back.

Thanks Heaps

Heya Horner

Good to see a fellow Pacco resident on the forum.

4 degrees for lagering will be fine for this yeast. So long as you do your primary ferment at the 12 degrees you state.

I'm currently preparing to do a similar brew - as far as yeast/temp are concerned.

As far as diacytel rest goes -
if I pitch at ferment temp - I don't need a diacytel rest?
If I pitch warm and bring it down - I do need a diacytel rest?

Am I following this correctly?

Cheers - bit off topic, but kinda on topic too.

^^ Thats how i have played that song for a few brews, unless I am sampling a previous brew while racking and forget the diacytel rest....
