I let this condition in the secondary carboy for 4 weeks. Used 5 oz. of priming sugar at bottling, which made it slightly more carbonated than what I expected. I compensated for this by pouring into the pint glass a little more directly (aim straight down to the bottom of the glass from 5-6 inches above the rim). This makes a nice head also.
