My first dunkelweizen is in primary, and I was wondering if the fermentation/conditioning time for a dunkel is the same as a heffe? Usually for my heffes I'll leave it in primary for 10 days then keg or bottle? Would the same schedule work for a dunkel?
 
I've tried the hefe procedure with a dunkel and found that a couple more weeks of cold storage beyond what you'd do for a hefe (if it's in a keg) makes it come out better.
