Just curious what the quickest you've gone from grain to glass with a low ABV session beer and had good results. It seems to me that the minimum is probably about 10 days which would work for a mild or something like BM's centennial blond (albeit, they will still be pretty green)
Anyone ever shoot for less than 10 days?
I made a mild last Sunday (3/8) and know that I'm going to float my blond ale tonight (I always have two beers on tap - one session and one higher abv or stout) and the mild is the next session beer that will be ready (home renovations got in the way of my brewing schedule - CURSES!). At this point, the krausen has fallen completely and has been for 3 days so I'm thinking of putting it on gas this Saturday (tomorrow). I know it will be green but I might hook it up anyways and have a pint or two. I'll save most of it for drinking after the 3 week mark.
