Using a brewers best kit, says to transfer to my carboy when the hydrometer says the beer is in the primary, what does this mean.
I usually do Primary 2-3 weeks then secondary for two weeks if I'm adding anything otherwise it stays on the primary for 30 days. Then rack to bottling bucket, prime and bottle .Using a brewers best kit, says to transfer to my carboy when the hydrometer says the beer is in the primary, what does this mean.
My process is primary for 14 days, 7 days @ 66-68F, 7 days @ 70-72F, then transfer to a secondary for another week. I usually do beers that I dry hop or pepper beers, as for the reason I do a secondary. If no conditioning, I keep in the primary, cold crash for a few days, then keg. My very first beer, I got too axious and transferred out early w/o a diacytl rest and paid the price. With what I do now, I havnt had any issues and am able to drink the beer within 3-3.5 weeks
