Long story short...
Having work get together the 28th. Brewed 3 batches mid March to early April (I have 3 cornies) with a heat stick. When kegging first batch it tasted burnt. So tried the others and they were 2. Dumped them all remade all 3 4/25 using stove (done several batches this way before).
All grain 5 gallon ipa, pale ale, Belgium wit.
I usually primary 1 week, secondary 2 weeks and keg 2-3 weeks but I don't have time for this due to my ignorance with the heat stick. I want this to taste as good as possible since my coworkers haven't had home brew before.
How would you go about finishing this?
I want to dry hop the ipa and pale ale. Due to time I was going to do this in the keg.
All are still in the primary. I was going to put them in secondary tomorrow and keg next weekend but worried about carb level since it will only be a week before party. I know a lot of people don't secondary but it has worked for me to this Point so I would like to continue with this.
Does anyone have a suggestion of leaving them at X psi for Y# of days to get to correct level faster? My kegerator is at 38 degrees.
Thank you.
