Ok so here is what I did. (First off let me explain that I have never bottle conditioned before, I went right to kegging from the get go.) So I had about 6 gallons of finished IPA in the 2ndary and I cold crashed it as I normally do before kegging. Since I couldn't fit all 6 gallons in my corny keg I put the first gallon or so into bottles with measured out amounts of priming sugar (yes I know this is a risky way to do this.) So my question is will there still be viable yeast in the brew to bottle condition? Or by cold crashing did all the yeast lay down at the bottom and not get in the bottles? If it matters I only cold crashed over night not for an extended amount of time.
