So... I have been anxious to brew my beer batch because the ingredients sat on my counter for like 2 weeks. I ended up finding a small window of time to brew and did some research.
I ended up mashing my grain and let it sit my cooler overnight (due to time restraints). When I opened the cooler, it smelt very sour compared to other style beers I have done. I checked the temp of the mash and it was down to 125F. Is my beer ruined? I was reading that people do this all the time, but I'm thinking that because the temp got so low, that it may have trashed my beer. Please somebody tell me I'm wrong.. This is my 4th batch of beer. Thanks!
