Notes

After about half the way attenuated, raise temp to 60 over several days to ensure it finishes out and provides a good diacetyl rest.

Do a diacetyl test by taking a sample and popping it into the microwave for 10 seconds. If any butter smell exists, keep it in the fermentor for a few more days.

Cold crash prior to kegging, lager for 4 weeks, then carbonate to 2.5 volumes.
