Fermentation Notes |
Cooled to 50F overnight. The lager had a full stopper (carboy cap) and Kolsch had airlock. Kolsch had more wort, which is why I chose that one (more fresh yeast than lager). Blanketed with CO2 overnight, aerated around 30 seconds each, pitched at 52F. Kolsch set at 62, lager at 50F. Good smells at pitching. |

Tasting Notes |
Accidentally froze Kolsch during crash cool, still delish - not crystal clear yet on initial tapping. (6/11) still not looking clear. Kegged lager, cap popped off carboy in crash cooling. |
