Hi guys!
Just started fermenting in corny kegs for the advantages it brings it with it, but started getting worried about yeast autolysis.
I don’t ferment under pressure, just plug a blow off tube and lock the keg towards the end of fermentation.
Aiming to reduce steps, my plan is to either drink the beer from the same keg it has been fermenting or bottle the beer from there with a counter pressure filler. I have trimmed the liquid dip tube.
Point is: as the yeast cake is still in the vessel and the keg gets pressurized, should I fear yeast autolysis and off flavors ?
Any technical input or anedoctal evidence of that ?
Thanks guys, cheers
