Easy question... The book I just read recommends conditioning IPA's for 3-5 weeks (dependent on OG). If I ferment in the primary for the first week, then rack to a secondary for the conditioning, does the 3-5 weeks include the time in the bottle? i.e., is 2 weeks in secondary and 2 weeks in the bottle 4 weeks or still just 2 weeks of conditioning?
