Hi Every one, I need to know how long after I bottle my brew will it have to sit in the bottles before its ready to consume, Also should the bottles be stored in the frig of at room temp.
3 weeks at room temp then another 2 or so days in the fridge=great beer in most cases. higher gravity beers take longer at room temp to condition than lower gravity beers.
Three weeks minimum at around 70F. Bigger beers take longer. Once they hit the three weeks, allow at least 48 hours of refrigeration before drinking. This allows the CO2 to be absorbed into the beer. The wait is a drag, but the solution is to keep brewing. Have fun.
