Hey All-
I'm going to be brewing my first AG batch on Saturday (National Homebrewing Day!). I've spent the last several days completing a few trials runs using just water to make sure my equipment is working. So far so good. I tested out my gravity fed CFC and was able to cool about 5.5gal of boiling water to about 60 deg F in about 15 minutes (I live in Michigan and the water is very cold underground!). Will wort at this temp be too cool to pitch my yeast into on Saturday or will I not need to worry about it? I will be fermenting in my basement which is about 65 deg F.
Thanks!
