Priming lager.

[doghouse gav]

Brewed a pilsner lager. Fermented at 12c for 2 weeks then moved to a secondary fv and it's been sitting in the fridge at 2c for 6 weeks. I'm going to bottle soon but need a little advise on batch priming it. Can you add sugars at such a low temp? Or should I let it warm up before priming and bottleing? :wha:
Any advice would be a great help. It's my first lager and man is there alot of faffing about to do it!

Not really. I'd bring the beer out of the fridge and let sit at room temperature for a day before priming. Batch prime in the normal way, I use 140g sugar/glucose for 23L and I also add a small amount of yeast, although I don't know if that is necessary, and then condition the bottles at 12-14C, sample along the way :drink: , but try and keep most of it 6 weeks before drinking and I'm sure you'll be happy with the results.
