Bottling and yeast

[dickiedavis]

Hi All,

I have a FV of coopers that has been fermenting for just over two weeks and I need a bit of advice on bottling.

If I drop it into my bottling bucket and leave it in the cold for a few days, will there be enough yeast in it to secondary ferment when I bottle it?

Cheers,

D

More than enough! :thumb:

Yes. Why not put the FV in the cold now?

FV in the cold for two days, bottling bucket in the cold for 2 days - is that good? It's really cold, btw, probably around 5 - 8 degs on some nights...

No, FV in the cold until you're ready to bottle. Rack it to the bottling bucket and bottle all in one session. :thumb:

OK, brilliant. That's Sunday evening sorted out, then :thumb:

Thanks for the info.
