This afternoon we wracked the chocolate porter we brewed last Sunday into secondary. I was a little worried to find that the primary was as cool as it was. The closet we stored it in was just a bit too cold. The color is good, but there was very little yeast, and it smelled vaguely of tomato sauce. So it was as good a time as any to do some yeast rousing!
During the process there were some choice words from Sarah about how the beer in the primary receding like a hairline as we siphoned to secondary. Now it is bubbling like crazy due to the warmer location and the yeast rousing. Hopefully that tomato smell will melt away.
Next Sunday - bottling day!
