So I was planning to brew a California Common tomorrow, but my son has taken ill and I'll likely take the day to take care of him.
I have Wyeast's California lager yeast on the stir plate right now and here's my dilemma:
Do I put it into the refrigerator to cold crash it to be brewed with on Tuesday (5/5/15); or
Do I let it keep running on the stir plate?
Variables: It only had one day at 70+ degrees as I switched my heat source over to my APA brewed last weekend. So most of the week it's been rocking at about 60 degrees (It and all my brewing stuff is in the basement. My wife hates the "tinkle" sound of the stir bar.)
My feeling is that it may be done so go ahead and crash it (I started it on Tuesday). But my brain says, maybe as a lager it could use a few more days at 60?
