Can anyone enlighten me about diacetyl? What does it taste like and how does one recognise it in a lager?

Thanks. When you say malo-lactic, does that also imply sour/acidic?
As a rule of thumb, do your d-rest at or slightly above the highest temp your brew has been at. Also, only perform a d-rest if you taste dacetyl in your samples... No need to do it if your palate can't detect it. Let your senses guide you.I thought diacetyl rest shold be around 20C. 50-55F would be around 10-12C
