5 Is Not Enough
Well-Known Member
I've brewed a high gravity ale w/ WLP099 (super high gravity wyeast). I fermented it upstairs at 72', but I think I may let it clear in a secondary for a while.
I'm wondering, should I bother?
At what point do you say, yes this beer should age for a while before bottling?
At what point do you say, it will be aging long enough that I should use a secondary?
and
If so, upstairs at ~72'f or downstairs at ~52'f?
Edit: to clarify, it fermented from 1.110 down to 1.013. It's been about 3 weeks now.
