I've got an ale that I racked before it was quite finished working, as have been spunding lately. Well, this brew fermented a little warmer than it should have, and I believe has acetaldahyde in it. I added some yeast from working wort from the next week's brew and it is working again, hope the sour flavor burns off. Am using spunding valves instead of air lock, and have them set at 5 PSI.
At what CO2 pressure, in PSI or volumes, is yeast activity hampered? I know it will happily build up to 3 vols and beyond in regular fermentation, but do not want carbonation get into way of yeast cleaning up contaminants. But if it does not matter, I'd set the spunding valves higher to carbonate as well.
