Hi Guys!
We recently made a 2 gallon braggot containing the following-
boiled for 60 mins:
1.32 Pale malt extract
1 oz Cascade hops 5.7%
Added to:
4 lbs Clover honey
1 teaspoon go-ferm
1 teaspoon Fermaid-K
Lalvin d47 (rehydrated to spec)
Water topped up to 2 gallons.
Step fed with Fermaid-K
OG:1.090
4 days later, it's already fermented to 1.010 so we're nearing secondary racking. Our plan is to allow this to floc and then carbonate (with half cup honey) and bottle in standard beer bottles.
What would you all recommend as a time to allow it to age in the carboys prior to carbonating and aging? This is our first braggot and already tasting pretty good even this soon, so we'd like to bottle and drink sooner rather than later.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
