Hey all!
I am brand new to home brewing and I'm glad to have found this site, great information and I look forward to participating here. I've wanted to give it a try for a while but I was a little intimidated by it. My wife just got me a kit for my birthday though and I was up an running.
For my first batch I made a Canadian Ale last week. That started fermenting and I just couldn't wait (she got me 3 beer kits) and I went and got a second bucket and started an IPA. Then the Negra Modelo clone kit kept staring at me.. and my Canadian Ale had settled down.. so I transfered it to my secondary glass carboy and started a 3rd batch. I know, I'm an adict
So.. my question... here I am with a batch of Canadian Ale in my secondary fermenter and an IPA and a Mexican Beer in primaries... I can hold off on moving either of the 2 in primaries until I've bottled the Canadian, but I'm not going to be able to secondary ferment both of the others... would one style of beer clearly benefit from secondary fermentation more than the other or should I just base the decision on which I can wait longer to drink?
