I just wanted to take a quick pole on CCing... see if their is a general consensus.
Question is how long do you CC?
I can't bring myself to wait longer than 3 weeks in CC. Afterall it's already taken nearly 3 weeks to ferment the bastard and i am eager to bottle it, then let it stand for another 3 weeks.... and that's already 9 bloody weeks. I will be an old man well before i get through my wish list of things to brew.
Is it really worth CCing for that extra time? Can anyone put a percentage value on the improvement?? just so i know what i am missing out on?
In the case of lagers, does CCing contribute more than bottle conditioning?
