Any thoughts on how long I should keep my stout in primary and secondary? I have an OG of 1.082 and I will be aging it with some oak chips and vanilla. I have read the 1-2-3 recommendation on here, but I have also read that conditioning happens quicker in the primary with all the goodiess still in there than it does in either secondary or bottles. So. given the high OG, should I keep in on primary beyond the 1 week? I guess its just a matter of personal preference as to how strong I want the vanilla/oak flavor, but is there a a general length of time that it should be in secondary?
Thanks in advance.
