Back to Back Batches

[Over The Cliff Brewing]

Anyone ever racked a batch off the yeast and other matter and pour another right on top to ferment? This seems not a good idea and I have not done it but worth finding out about it.

I’m doing it tomorrow. Love the super short lag time and healthy fermentation.

Have you done this before?

Many times. The only I don’t love the results is when I did a dunkel then transferred a Pilsner on top of the slurry. I would recommend either doing similar beers or going from a more simple less bold beer to something less so. For instance doing a blonde ale then an ipa.

Yep. Works like a champ.
