I have had a 9% double IPA slow carbing in the keezer for about a week. I tested it and it is very green. I am sure that it will be fully carbed in another week because the carbonation is close. It has a great head on it, and it bubbles up pretty well already, but it really needs more time to condition.
So what is best to do in one week when it is fully carbed?
Do i take it off the gas next week and keep it sitting/aging in the keg another few weeks or longer? Or just keep the gas at a steady 13 PSI - 40 F like it is now for a while and test it every few days?
The other brews i have slow carbed (average 5% to 6% ales) are ussually ready about the time they are done carbing. (about two weeks in)
Any advice on this one being so green and such a high alcohol brew?
Thanks in advance!
