I recently brewed my first high gravity beer, Creme Brulee Stout, which is an Imperial Stout. The recipe I followed did not specify on how long to keep it in the secondary. Does any one have a ball park recomendation? Also, is it necessary to add another dose of yeast?
Thanks for the advice!
Here is the details.
