I brewed my first Tripel about a week ago, and it seems to have finished up primary (OG 1.071/ right now its 1.009). I plan on leaving it in primary another week for 2 weeks total, and I was going to rack to secondary for 2 weeks, and then bottle with hopes to being able to at least try one or two around Christmas. Everything I have read so far has been all over the place. Some say to age for several months, some say bottle after primary. Nothing consistent. I tried a sample from the gravity reading I took, and it tastes pretty damn good right now. Any advice?
Also, how high of CO2 volumes can standard 12 oz bottles hold? I was planning on carbing this one to about 3-3.25. Any worries about bombs at that pressure?
