Currently brewing Cooper's 86 day pilsner it's fermenting at 13°c
I am wondering would you rest it for a few days (doing the diacetyl rest) at higher temperatures around 18-20)
And then do a second fermentation ?
What I'm asking is would it be ok to use a demijohn for secondary fermentation and if so do I just bung it or still fit an airlock and bring down to near zero for this stage and how long would you lager it for ? Before bottling
Thanks for any assistance
