Fermentation time for small batches.

[ashopis]

Hey folks,

I have started brewing 3 gallon BIAB batches of NEIPA. I'm using a smack pack of Wyeast London III to ferment. For a five gallon batch, I usually go for a week in primary and another week for dry hopping.

My question is, since I'm only fermenting 3 gallons, will fermentation go quicker? Can I cut the two week process short?

Thanks!

Fermentation takes the same time with small batches as for large. No discernible difference.

14 - 21 days, leaning towards the higher amount most of the time.
