This is absolutely the best forum around...
So another question: I have been doing some searches and it seems like some homebrewers increase the temperature towards the end of the active fermentation to stimulate the yeast to "finish the job."
I am in day three of active fermentation of my bourbon old ale; the activity in the airlock is beginning to slow. I have been keeping the temps in the 60-65 degree range. Is there any value - or harm - in increasing this to 70?
