Perhaps the most common slip-up that those who are new at all to <a href="http://brewbeertoday.com/brew-beer-today/home-brew-beer-an-investment-of-time-and-patience/">home beer making</a> is they drink it prematurely. When you're too impatient and do not let your brew age correctly you're occasionally dissatisfied with the results. Based on the recipe you used, the majority of home brew beers require that, following the fermentation process, you allow beer to age for a time of no less than two and up to six weeks. Take note that these would be the least suggested times. Should you let your home brew beer alone longer periods you're going to get better results.
While it looks like nothing is going on during this period nothing could be further from the truth. During the aging process the yeast continues to ferment making use of the sugars that remain in the beer after the bottling process. This naturally adds to the carbonation of your brew. It’s this that gives your beer bubbles. The other thing that's going on is the yeast will begin to settle out from the brew itself. It will help the flavor to be smoother and further enhances the flavors of the recipe you chose in the first place.
This aging process will vary widely depending on the recipe brewed. The reason for this is that the flavor ingredients in each recipe are different and require different amounts of time to mature. You can easily find some beers recipes that are ready to drink in as little as two weeks and others that are recommended to age for four months.
Once you have bottled your beers, ideally in brown or amber tinted glass bottles to guard the beer from Uv radiation, you'll need a secure, undisturbed spot to keep them while they age. Your new home brew beer needs to be held in a cool, dark place where they will not get shifted about and also the temperature never goes over the limitation suitable for the recipe you used. Different yeasts need a variety of temperatures. Normally, this is 72 to 74 degrees and is never greater than 76 degrees.
Once your new brew has aged and you are ready for the first sample, be sure you record the length of time you let the batch age before sampling. In fact, good record keeping about what happens with each batch you brew is a very good idea. As you try different things and get different results, you will be building a database of the techniques that work best for you and your home brewery. These records will help prevent you from repeating mistakes and are also a great resource for additional ideas on what to try on your next brewing adventure.
