I made a clone of Orval and will be kegging it whern it is finished fermenting along with Orval dregs that I'm building up to about 2 pints. It will be stored in my basement at around 60F until the funk is there. So how long do you think it will take for the brett funk to kick in gear?
 
if you make a starter of brett dregs it will happen much faster. I've gotten a great deal of brett character in under 2 months. Last brett beer I did was a co-pitch of a wit yeast and brett blend and it tasted great even at the first gravity reading.

For a finished beer, I would definitely add a lot of brett to get things rolling faster. Warmer temps will help too
