I am brewing a lambic, I guess style beer. My base beer (which was soured) has pretty much finished fermenting.

Most recipes instruct to rack to a secondary where the cherries are added. I am thinking about just adding them to the primary. I plan to have them in there about a month and many people keep their beer in the primary for 2-4 weeks with no bad effects.

Are there any reasons I am overlooking to why I should rack to a secondary opposed to just using the primary (yeast washing aside).

Thanks,
