So, I brewed AHS's Northumberland Brown Ale. The room I fermented in was roughly 70-71 degrees. When I woke up the next morning the airlock was going nuts and I saw the stick-on thermometer was reading 77 degrees. I moved the fermenter to a cooler room that got the stick-on thermometer down to 71.
The yeast was a dry Windsor yeast by Danstar.
Am I doomed to drinking a banana ale (gross)? Is it normal for a fermenter's internal temp to be 6 degrees higher than the room temperature?
I'm a new brewer that needs to be talked off the ledge.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
