how long does it take high flocculent yeast to carbonate.
« on: August 15, 2015, 07:19:33 pm »
Just finishing primary fermentation of a brew using WLP002 for the first time. Has anyone experienced prolonged carbonation times with a highly flocculent yeast such as this, or is 2 weeks enough if I keep it around 68-70F.

Thanks.

In my experience WLP002/WY1968 works the same as any other yeast for bottle conditioning. Your usual process should yield your usual results.
