On Tuesday I had a nuclear stress test and a "potential" blockage was discovered. I was scheduled for a cardiac catheterization for Thursday.
At the time I had a nut brown that would have been in primary for 1 week on Wednesday. I wanted to try my hand at washing yeast, and with the uncertainty of my heart situation I decided the best thing to do would be to rack to secondary on Wednesday (fermentation was not 100% done, but had slowed significantly), since I didn't know when I would be allowed to lift etc again.
Well, fast forward two days. Yesterday I was given a clean bill of healthy and the stress test was ruled a false-positive (good news considering I'm only 32). So, now that the excitement (torture) of the last 76 hours is over, I'm looking at this secondary full of beer (it tasted delicious, if a little sweet still on Wednesday) and wondering if it will suffer to much due to the short time in primary? If there is enough sugar still in the beer the yeast would just take back off (all beit more slowly) right?
I'll take a hydrometer reading when I'm feeling more like walking in and out of the house (the leg is still a little sore)
Edit: I stated "i'm looking at this primary full of beer" where I meant "I'm looking at this secondary full of beer". My question is, will my beer suffer from to short of time in primary? and Do I need to pitch one of the jars of washed yeast back into the secondary and just let it finish out?
