Troglodyte, I bottle conditioned for 2 weeks and put one bottle in the fridge one night and was drinking it the next night. Tasted very good. Now once I got to the last few bottles 4 weeks had past and it tasted just fine. So your time limit should be fine.

I did mine with 3.9 oz of corn sugar. Seemed low to me and no head. But when I brew it again I will do it just the same because it tasted very good

I posted earlier that I brewed this beer. I first have to say that this was my first 5gallon batch. Second I use a refractometer that reads only in brix, bought it so I would stop loosing so much beer from my 1 gallon batches. Mashed at 152 for 1 hour, batch sparged at 170 for 10 minutes. SG...

I was looking at this recipe and printed it off. To my surprise I have brewed this recipe before. A co-worker gave it to me. The only difference was my addition of East Kent Goldings @ 10 min not 15 min. I must say I will brew this beer again.

Thanks

I'm new to homebrewing and hoping I can learn some good info from this site
