Question of Timing

[libirm]

I want to brew my first batch soon-
I will have 2 kegs in my soon to be finished Keezer-
Could some one give me a idea about how long it takes to put a batch from first fermented into second than into keg- than drink?

A what point do I start me second batch in the above process?

Thanks
I know I my be a little ambitious

Depends on the beer you're brewing.

You can start brewing now, store the beer in a carboy until a keg opens up in your keezer. No problem with that at all.

As far as timing, for a medium-sized beer (say 1.050ish), I will ferment for 10-14 days, dry hop for another 7 days, then carbonate in the keg for 3-5 days before its ready to drink.

Start the next batch as soon as your primary is freed up. A "quick" beer csn finish in primary 2 weeks. Secondary one week then a few days in the keg to chill and force carb. Did a blonde in about 3 weeks and some change.

Your primary fermentation will be done once your gravity has stabilized for three consecutive days. This depends on your yeast pitch rate, fermentation temp, oxygen and OG.

Secondary fermentation (if any) time depends on beer. I think some do it to mellow out flavors.

So there are many variables.
