Well, it apparently turned out okay. They sampled a bottle yesterday and said it was indeed carbonated and not flat and quite good...I suspect it will be a lot better if it ages longer.

We'll see! I'm pushing to let it just sit as I thought a week was pushing it. Instigator want's to sample a bottle tonight...*shrug* He thinks it'll be carbonated enough to be drinkable. But you're right....they were already talking about a "Well, we brew one week..drink the next..endless...
