G'Day all,
So I brewed a Belgian IPA using two packets of Safe Ale 33. I pitched two packets because my expected gravity was set at 1.057 but came out at 1.052. I still pitched at a rate slightly better than 0.75 per plato. I have an ambient room temperature of 19 degrees Celsius and that's where it has been stored. I pitched at 5 Monday and within an hour it was bubbling. After 18 hours of pitching, it reached peak krausen. After 24 hours the krausen dropped and now at 28 hours in, there is no krausen and no airlock activity. I plan on keeping it in primary for a couple weeks for clean up before dry hopping, so the question is, do I have any worries here?
Thanks for any tips
