Hey gang, I'm switching over to kegging this coming week and I had a question regarding timing of fermenting/conditioning/aging. I am extract brewing using NB kits(which are great!) and was trying to figure out the best way to go about it..
Question is..
If a recipe calls for 2 weeks primary/2 weeks secondary/2 weeks bottle conditioning(then refrigerate and serve) and I am planning to keg, would it be the same as 6 weeks in primary then straight to keg(to chill/carb then serve)?
I understand that people have different ways of reaching the end goal, but was just wondering if essentially this would create the same fermenting & conditioning/aging as if I followed a recipe timing to the letter(using the bottling method)?
