Second batch one week in the bottle

[zythos]

Just got the chance to taste a small sample of my second batch. It's been in the bottle for a week. It's almost delicious! It definitely tastes like it could use some more time, but ! It's an extract kit, True Brew oktoberfest. I'm very pleased right now, definitely looking forward to cracking a few open at the three week mark. Thanks HBT, (before today I would RDWRHBT - Relax Don't Worry Read Home Brew Talk) now I really can RDWHAHB!

Do not store all the bottles in the fridge just yet. Conditioning needs to happen at 70F for good results because the yeast have to be active to do it. Usually 2 weeks at 70F does the trick for CO2. The extra sweetness will also go away given time. Aging is important.

Thanks, I know that though . I like to drink most beers at just below room temperature anyway. Many seem to taste better that way to me. Nevertheless, the advice is always appreciated.
