Excellent reporting on a tough story. Without knowing any of the people involved myself, it sounds like this was a case of loose business practices that finally came home to roost.

I'm sure you're fine. Saison is supposed to get at least a little funky. What yeast strain did you use?

Would it have better to close up the fermenter and then pitch later when it had naturally cooled? I know it isn't ideal, but you wouldn't risk killing the yeast and/or ending up with off flavors. ...

It really depends on your yeast strain. 3711 goes off like a champ around 73 degrees while 3724 wants it warm and swampy.

From what I understand, 3724 needs to be ramped up into the 80s or you will probably have a stuck fermentation. I went with 3711 on the saison I brewed yesterday as that goes nuts between 70-75...

It depends on the yeast. Do a search for Wyeast 3711 French Saison and you will find a lot of success stories fermenting between 70-75 without the stuck fermentation problems of other strains.

How many gallons is your recipe and what is the expected OG? Looks a little light for a 5 gallon batch, but then again I'm not sure what you are shooting for.

Not bad at all for the first brew ever! As stated, stir the bejesus out of it after you add your sparge water. The grain is holding on to sugars and you want them! Other than that, just getting...

Yeah, you should decant the liquid on top first. This is often old beer/water you added. Also, a little trub won't hurt anything, but you are obviously only interested in the healthy yeast, so that...

I think we are going to need a little more info. What recipe have you made? Was it a kit? What yeast did you use? If you break it down for us, we can probably pinpoint what's going on.
