I just bottled my first batch and plan on waiting 7-10 days until its time go time. Does anyone have any pearls about how long to wait or is the 7-10 days good?
It is your beer, so you can sample as little or as much as you like. I'd recommend over-sampling for the first couple batches just so you can see and taste the progression. Forums are great, but there really is no substitute for experiencing it yourself.
I have wasted so much beer when I first started brewing. Testing one or 2 a week and only to get mediocre beer. Wait it out. Sure it's great to Tate the progress but in the end you're only wasting green beer.
