Is there a maximum amount of time for my secondary? Due to schedule problems, I'm not going to be able to bottle after 2 weeks.... Will probably be 3. Will that have any effect on the final beer?
Thanks,
Jimi
 
Yup....long long time. Thats why I always rack to the secondary. Now if were talking about the primary with all the yeast and trub in it.... well thats a different story.
 
I go straight from the primary to keg and some of them have been on tap for 5-6 months without a problem.
