For those of us that bottle the standard process is:
Ferment in bucket
Condition in carboy
Carb/Condition in bottles
I have a recipe which I found was great with 1 week - bucket, 2 weeks - carboy, 8 weeks - bottle
I left it in the fermenting bucket 2 weeks and the carboy 3 weeks this time. Does that imply it has already done 4 weeks of conditioning, so 4 more in the bottle will be the equivalent of my desired process?
Also I read that you can put the bottles at 75 degrees to carbonate faster. Does that also accelerate conditioning?
Thanks
