I did some searching around here and have come to the conclusion that my fermentation temp is too high. My thermometer (which is reading from inside my mini-brew) reads 72. I'm brewing a Belgian Christmas ale - I can't remember what White Labs yeast I was using, but I can check on that.
To my point . . . I've read that if I let it sit a bit longer the banana smell will go away. Is this right? Should I attempt to cool it down? I got caught in a 10 degree upswing in the weather in the last couple days, and I'm limited to my garage for fermentation. I guess I can throw a wet towel over my fermenter and put a fan on it?
