Hi,
Just wondering if others have encountered this.

For two batches in a row, the beer brewed with WLP001, have fermented fine but not bottled conditioned. The first one was cold-crashed and bulk primed, the second one was cold-crashed and individually dosed.

Is this usual for this yeast? It drops out in the FV like a brick, but this!?

Cheers
 
how long you cold crash and how long have they been sitting ?

I find if I do a long cold crash some beers take 6 weeks to carb properly.

I have done a couple brews with WLP001 recently and they carbed as expected after CC

Thanks, I cold crashed for 3 and 4 days in normal fridge. About 8 weeks in the bottle at room temp. I split the 20L into 2 x 10L batches. After 3 days at 21c immediately after bottling, the other FV with WLP051 carbed fine.

Thought it was odd the first time with bulk prime, but second time?
