Cold crash!

So I decided to cold crash my Trippel . It's been in the LBK for 3 weeks, and I have it now moved to the garage where the temp is low. I'll bottle in a few days. I'm excited to see this one comes out.

I got 10 gallons to cold crash.. I think I'll just set it outside, and hope it doesn't freeze it.

And if it does, you will have 10 gallons of "eisbock" :) It's a win either way.

Glad to see you are up and running and able to brew the 10 gallons "Dag.

Hope all is well in Washington State.

Oh and I guess I'll be having BB2 looking into "eisbock" as it starts getting colder here. :D

It's in the bottle! Took a small sample, I think this one is going to need to condition for awhile.....

Expect to condition it for at least a few months, being a high ABV beer.
