I know everyone says to bottle beer once your FG has become stable for a few days...but I was wondering if:
Has anyone ever tried to bottle a Brett beer (or any beer in general) WITHOUT ADDING PRIMING SUGAR...BEFORE it reaches FG and allow the brett to reach FG within the bottles? Basically the Brett will be carbonating the bottle (champagne bottles) without the aid of any priming sugar...
For example:
I just brewed a Dubbel :rockin: and used a mixed yeast blend (Wyeast 3789-PC) of Sacch and Brett during primary...the Sacch finished primary fermentation at 1.015 and now the Brett is getting to work. It is now down to 1.011. I expect the Brett to finish anywhere from 1.000 to 1.004. Can I bottle and allow the Brett to carbonate the bottles? Any issues I might experience other than bottle bombs?
Thanks for the info!
