With the sweltering heat I am concerned that my little yeasts aren't eating up the priming sugar...
I bottled a pale ale about a week and a half ago. It has been probably in the upper 80's/ low 90's in my apartment the past week. Tossed a bottle in the fridge and tested it today to see how it's going. Flat. Flat and sweet. Tasted more like priming sugar than pale ale.
Could the heat have cooked my yeast? Usually after a week and a half I have at least a little carbonation.
Is there anything to be done? I want to have this beer drinkable for a BBQ next weekend. Should I move it to the basement where its a little cooler?
