I'm brewing a bitter tomorrow for a club contest on April 7th which gives me 31 days. With the days I'm able to brew I can do either 12 days in the fermenter and 19 bottle conditioning or 15 and 16 respectively. Which would be the better option?
I'm also considering only bottling 2 gallons and then racking the remaining 3 to a 3 gallon carboy secondary to go longer (if I have a free carboy by then). Or is that totally unnecessary? (Estimated OG 1.049, pitching S-04)
Thanks!
