I'm a homebrewer who has to fit brewing in with family life so I'm always looking to streamline my process. I primarily use rehydrated safale yeast and I'm wondering if it's ok for the yeast to sit in the water overnight so I can pitch first thing in the morning before I go to work?
I figure I can save a lot of time by cooling the wort to around 100-110 and then let it come down to pitching rates overnight. It doesn't take long to get the wort to 100 but it takes a long time to get it to 65.
Is this safe? If so, should the yeasties sit at room temp overnight or in the refrigerator?
