Lagering questions (storage & priming)

[James P]

Hi Guys

Well after ordering the fridgemate I am looking at setting down my first lager using the saflager yeast. I have tired to find a good source for lagering information (How to Brew, etc) however I still have a couple of questions..

- Do I lager in the primary fermenter or transfer to another container?
- Once lagering is completed, do you add additional yeast for priming?
If so, how much for the 21 litres?
- Any other ideas would be great.

I'm using a fermenter at the moment, however am going to invest in a couple of buckets, or jerry cans from plastic box / para rubber to do the job as with winter coming I plan on doing a few extra lagers under the house.
