So I just started brewing..extract and have a stout, blonde ale, and a hard cider fermenting. Now...when the directions say ferment for x...bottle and wait for additional x amount of time..if you are kegging and force carbonating can you cut out that time (minus the time needed to properly force carb) or is that additional time in the bottle providing some other benefit than just carbonating the bottles? Basically I decided not to even mess with the bottles and just go the keg route and was wondering what kind of time that will buy me?
