I thankfully have been able to use a 5 cubic foot chest freezer to ferment and lager in. I was in a rush this last batch to get it into a keg for my parents arrival so I didn't lager it as long as I wanted to.

Garage Lager

6 lbs Weyerman Barker Pils

2.5 lbs flaked corn

.75 lbs Breiss Caramel 10L

.5 lbs Rice hulls

.25 oz Chinook @ 60 minutes

.5 oz Cascade @ 30 minutes

2 sachets Fermentis SafLager WB-34/70

 

OG 1.055. Pitch yeast and put inside fermenting chamber at 65 degrees and let it sit at that temperature until the start of fermentation is visible. Once fermentation starts gradually over the course of about 10 hours lower temperature to 52 degrees for the rest of fermentation. At 14 days check to see if fermentation is complete. If/when fermentation has completed gradually raise the temperature to 62 degrees for diacetyl rest and leave it at that temperature for 3 days. After day 3 rack to secondary and once again gradually lower the temperature, this time going down to 37 degrees and leave to lager as long as you can resist. I try to do a minimum of 30 days.

I was thinking how when we go to the rockslide for our social I always get the feeling that we are not that welcome. Maybe it’s just me. It just seems that way to me. What are everyone else’s opinion on this? Cheers!!

I have the same issues. I guess it’s the price you have to pay.

I'm so sick of the post drinking fatigue and worse that GI issue where I just poo water and rubber pellets for like two days, thanks beer!!! Also, thanks to winter finally getting here I have this awesome sinus infection that renders beer enjoyment null. 

Can I get an Amen here or is this really unusual for the rest of y'all?

Give it a try if you like.
