Bottling

[ringo8553]

Leave how long and at what temperature after bottling a porter, and how long in the fridge before drinking?

The standard reply here- 3 weeks @ 70 degrees, 1 week in fridge for best results.

I've had some take 4-5 weeks to carb & condition. A porter may take longer.
And 1 week in fridge is good for good head & decent carbonation. 2 weeks fridge time for thicker head,& longer lasting,fine bubbled carbonation.

well try a few after 4/5 weeks, and then stay patient en keep a few for over a year. porters tend to get better over time. you can keep beer for ages. sour beers and high alcohol dark beers will develop over the years.

Thanks...I inherited 300 bottles mostly full of a 1987 home brew...that just might be overdoing it a bit
