I just brewed my first bath of beer on saturday, made a Belgian Amber Ale. The weather here in Texas has been kinda crazy, 30 at night and 75 during the day. I'm keeping my primary in a closet in a spare bedroom. I've taken the temp several times in there and it's consistently 62-63 degrees. I do have a blanket wrapped around the bucket, but i don't know if it's enough.
I used Wyeast 1056 and i'm curious if this it's getting too cold for the yeast, and if so, what are the dangers. It's still bubbling, but not continuously and if i tap on the lid i get a reaction in the airlock.
I can move it to a new place or open the closet door to let more heat in, but it gets pretty cold in that part of the house and i know i should avoid light and draft.
I appreciate any info anyone can give me.
