when is the fermenting finished?

Thanks for the welcome! We just became AHA members this week! Planning on going to the rally tonight at Boston Beer Co. to meet and swap notes with other, more veteran homebrewers and to taste some great Sam.

Competitions are definitely of interest to us! We’re definitely already addicted to the hobby!

What City do you leave in?

Thanks! Actually, I’m a fellow North Shore brewer (Peabody). Are you a member of the North Shore Brewers? I met a couple of club members at Sam last night, and my wife and I are thinking about joining.

Will Pm to not hijack thread.

Hello all. Just wanted to share with you all that I just bottled my nugget nectar clone today. It would not have been possible without the help I received from this forum…  You guys are the best!

Good deal - waiting will never be a problem with homebrew.  Sometimes I leave the beer for 6 weeks in the primary waiting for a keg to open up!

Because of work and personal travel, we needed to leave a saison in a five-gallon bucket for six weeks and cold crashed for a full week after that. We bottled it, and expected the worse (really thought there would have been some serious oxidation), but now we’re enjoying what has become one of the best ales we’ve made so far.

I am not a follower of the always a “month long primary” regime advocated on some other homebrewing boards but saison yeast can really mature with some additional time.
