Cheers

Welcome to the forum, and good luck with your first brew, but don't be too rigid on your dates. Just because a kit says it's ready to barrel or bottle in 6 days doesn't mean it will be, that's only a guideline, a bit longer is usually beneficial.

+1 With what Moley say's.
I tend to leave mine in the FV for about 2 weeks and then move it to a secondry for another week before i bottle or keg it.
