Hello!
Just recently got back into brewing after taking a couple of years off. I have a better setup now so I'm really excited to see what I can make.
I brewed this coffee stout from northern brewer on Saturday: Peace Coffee 2nd Crack Stout Extract Beer Recipe Kit w/ Steeping Grains and I'm using White Labs Irish ale yeast.
It's currently Tuesday and I've noticed that my krausen has dropped to the bottom of the carboy and my airlock is bubbling a lot less. I know that the bulk of fermentation takes place within the first couple of days, but the recipe says to keep in primary for 2 weeks and bottle condition for two weeks.
I was hoping to rack to secondary and run it through a filter as I keg it. I then planned on keeping it in the keg for a week or two for carbonation/conditioning. Should I really wait 2 weeks before I rack to secondary? Or should I do that sooner and plan on moving it to a keg at the end of the two weeks?
