The longer you let it sit the better it will be. When I used Mr. Beer after bottling I would let it sit for at least 2 months.Give the yeast time to convert all the sugars. With patience and cleanliness you can make a very drinkable beer. B?est part is two weeks after christmas bed bath and beyond marks all the Mr. Beer stuff 50% off. After you do a few good batches I recommend a real starter kit. You will find the beer you can brew with these can be on par with anything you can buy in the store. They cost between 80 and 100 dollars and they are well worth it. For around 300 the kit come with a kegging system.
