I just transferred a Stone Xocoveza clone to fermenter (trinkner recipe Aug 24, 2017 on this page)
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/forum/threads/stone-xocoveza-mocha-stout.492778/page-4#post-8198732
Now, regarding what comes next, I'm wondering: should I just go like:
1. Primary for about a week
2. Add tinctures
3. Secondary for another week
4. Bottle
or something more specific to big beers such as:
1. Primary for about a week
2. Add tinctures + ADD SOME FRESH YEAST TO SECONDARY
3. Secondary for a good MONTH
4. Bottle with a relatively LOW AMOUNT OF PRIMING SUGAR, given the fact that the fermentation of such a big beer might not be complete
I'm asking, because this seem to be the way to deal with Russian Imperial Stouts, Barley Wines and so on according to my current readings (Brew Classic Styles by Jamil Zainasheff, Radical Brewing by Randy Mosher, Joy of Homebrewing by Charlie Papazian)
Thanks
