First time brewer and I followed the instructions that were provided in the kit. When I cooled my wort to allow addition of yeast to ferment everything went well. It started fermenting within an hour or so I put it in a closet to keep dark and away from kids. After a day the fermenting STOPPED. My house temperature is 68 deg - 72 deg F during the day, but at night it went below 65 degrees. Could this have been the problem that caused the fermenting to stop? I was thinking that it would take 3-5 days like the instructions say for fermenting to complete. SO, does fermenting need to be at a relatively constant temperature?
