I have three brews coming to the end of their fermentation. I want to bottle asap in the hope that at least one might be drinkable for Christmas but I keep reading advice to leave it in the fv for a while to allow the yeasties to 'clean up after themselves'.
Does this mean in the primary fv, or after racking to secondary? Or doesn't it matter?
And for how long after cessation of activity should I wait to bottle? I assume that the beer is currently still vulnerable to infection or oxidation so I imagine that waiting too long isn't a good idea..
