Hey guys, we're throwing a party on 7/3 for the holiday, and I always serve homebrew. Well...this year life and work have gotten in the way and I have nothing in the pipeline. I think I can pull off a good beer in 20 days...I know there's lots of shortcuts, what do you guys think about this?
The style is an APA, with OG targeted at 1.052, finishing at 5.4% ABV. Going to use the San Diego yeast for a fast ferment.
6/11 (tonight) - start yeast starter on stirplate
6/13 (first avail brewday) Brew
6/19 - Start Cold Crash (assuming primary ferm is complete)
6/22 - Rack to Keg / add Dry Hops to Keg / carb @ 10 PSI/39 deg
7/3 - Serve
I normally like to dry hop in the keg around 67deg for at least 3 days, and then carb at serving temp. I don't think I have time for that...thoughts? Thanks folks!
