I brewed my first porter on Saturday and have a few questions around fermentation. Normally I rack to secondary (on advice of local brew shop) after 2 weeks and then bottle after 2 weeks. I’ve read mixed reviews on racking to a secondary. What is your advice on fermenting my porter? Do I rack to secondary? Or, just leave it in primary and for how long?
Once fermentation is complete and I bottle it how long do I bottle condition for?
