Usually 10-14 days Secondary additions: After fermentation is complete package and carbonate to a moderately high level (2.5-3 volumes) Comments: This style of beer is all about freshness and drinking whilst young. You'll want to enjoy it on a warm late summer evening with friends and drink it whilst at its freshest. The balance of flavour and aroma is vital and the yeast used will be key to this. Fermenting on the cooler side of this yeast's capability will promote clove esters and moving to the warmer side of the scale will promote banana to show up. You can choose where you want this to sit but we prefer the clove profile, hence the fermentation temperature being lower. We've included 2 packs of yeast with this kit to allow for the best possible fermentation with little stress placed on the yeast, this will limit the chance of undesirable flavours from being produced.
