I posted part of this earlier in the month. I brewed a wheat extract back on Dec 4th with the og around 1.050 or a little higher. I brewed this while out of state at another house we own and the temp dropped down in the low to mid '50s range.
Around the last of december it was still bubbling a little so I transferred to a secondary (don't ask me why) and let it finish til Jan 16th. Again the temps fluctuated. This is my question....how critical are temp control in extract brewing and what can I expect from this wheat in taste? FG was 1.010 and I bottled it on the 16th. Guess I shoulda bought a blanket heater for it huh?
