So I finally have a chest freezer that I am using for my ferment chamber and currently have a blonde ale fermenting away at 64F. All is good!
Tomorrow I am brewing up a double decoction lager that will require months of lagering and that got me thinking. I want to use the chamber for my ales but this won't be possible if I have beers lagering at 35F in there.
Damn, I need another chest freezer!
Or do I? For those of you who lager on a regular basis, can you pull a batch that is lagering out of the fridge for 5 days to make room for an ale? Or, is that a no no?
How do you guys do it?
