I've searched this, along with "time in the secondary" and so forth, but i still have a valid question. I have 2 PET BB's, and i think i'm going to get into brewing head on (note: first batch is going to be this weekend), so i was wondering if this would be a safe pipeline.
Brew batch 1; 1st fermenter, 10 days; rack to 2nd for 2 weeks; bottle
immediately brew 2nd batch; 1st fermenter 2 weeks, rack to 2nd for 2 weeks... and so on.
so my question is, is it alright to have equal amounts of time for the beer in the 1st fermenter as the clearing stage (for example, the 2nd batch)? or is the whole point of the clearing to be longer than the fermentation?
aside: bottling will be 3+ weeks as well.
thanks in advance all.
