Greetings Everyone.
Got a question that may seem a bit newbish. But after racking my beer from the fermentation bucket to the bottling bucket (adding priming sugar to bottling bucket during transfer) how long can I let the beer sit in the bottling bucket before I start to bottle it?
My neighbor and I both have 5gal batchs that we are planning on bottling this weekend and our intention is to santize equipment and transfer the beer into bottling buckets before our kids go to bed and then after the kids hit the sack we would get together and begin bottling our latest creation. Probably looking at 1-3 hours between transfering into bottling buckets and when we sit down to begin bottling. Bottling Buckets will be sealed with airlocks for venting.
Will we need to add more priming sugar to the bottling bucket for this to counteract the delay in bottling or are we good as is?
My neighbor and I are just looking to save time and not wake the kids since both of our fermenters are in the basement of our houses.
What are your thoughts....
Thanks for the feedback.
