My process for fermenting a batch is simple - two weeks in the carboy, temperature controlled in a keezer for whatever yeast I'm using, and then cold crash for 24 hours and into the bottle, never a secondary unless I want to rack it onto some vanilla beans or whatever.
So my questions are... what do you do?
Would you do anything different than how I roll?
Is anybody out there doing less time in the carboy?
Are you basing it solely on gravity readings, or are you just letting it ride for a set period of time like I do?
Does anyone know of any benefits to leaving it in the carboy for less/more time?
And do you know of any solid reasons beyond clarity and avoiding autolysis?
Any and all advice more than welcome. Been brewing a while now, just looking for opportunities for improving my process/beers.
Thanks!
