Crash Temp?
« on: March 11, 2020, 06:35:48 am »
As we are crashing the Czech Pils now, just wondered if 0 C is okay. Is that too cold?

  I keep my cold crash fridge set at 28*, it'll range up to 32* before the inkbird kicks it back on. As long as it doesn't freeze, colder is better IMO.

I use 30F. Many German breweries use -1C.

"Normal" gravity beer around 29F.  Higher gravities, lower temps.  I've gone as low as 27 for an eisbock.
