I have been fermenting my first lager for just over a week now.
I cooled the wort down to 8c and pitched my yeast, then warmed everything up to 10c where it has sat ever since.
I plan to leave it fermenting for 4 weeks in total BUT should I do a diacetyl rest or not as I have heard you only need to do this if you ferment at higher temps?
If I do need to do one what temp should I raise it to and for how long?
Cheers
