I have 2 open spots in my keezer, and will be out of town for 3 weeks.
Going to fill one of them with a BoPils using Saflager 34/70.
Will pitch 2 packs cuz that's what I have.
Going with a traditional lager fermentation:
Primary — 11°C/52F — 20 days
D-rest — 17°C/62F — 3 days
Now what to fill the remaining keezer spot... I have 2 pk of Nottingham, which per the mfg recommends 14-21°C (57-70°F).
I'm leaning toward a Northern English Brown - Newcastle-esque, 4.7%. I'm curious to see what differences in esters and aroma come out (if any) by fermenting this cool.
Anyone done similar before?
