My first batch. Brown ale kit by TrueBrew. I rehydrated and primed the yeast according to Palmer. I used Coopers dry but an 11 gm. package and not the smaller package provided. Pitched yeast at about 70 - 75F. Four or five hours after pitching it took off and almost blew out the air lock. I caught it in time and put it a vent tube. Temp got up to about 80 but it cooled down slowly to 72 after I put it in a tub of water. It continued bubbleing all night at a good rate but then tapered off to nothing after 24 to 26 hours. Fast and furious fermentation!
I want to know if this within the range of normal. From what I have read it should last longer.
Man- it smells good already.
