One week after pitching yeast - terminal gravity. This is the fastest I’ve ever had a lager ferment.

This WY2278 is a different strain from WLP800 and the second round of using it. I’m quite impressed and far less stressed.

Will let it sit a day or so and then add the 2L of wort I reserved, into the keg with a spunding valve and some time to naturally carbonate. Then lagering time of 30-42 days.

The Polotmavé is close behind and on the same track to finish in 1 week

24 hours after pitching the yeast (WY2278) from a two stage starter. Woke up the yeast slurry with a DME wort, chilled and decanted, then in chilled wort from this brew while the main wort chilled to 4°C. Oxygenated the wort and then poured in the starter. Let the temp free rise to 9°C. Saw the surface temp with the Tilt rise to around 12° and then the drop to <9° as it all started to get going.

This is the least lager lag I’ve ever had.
