So on friday night i took a sample reading of my milk stout and it was in the finish range. This past week temps have been steady in the high 70's to low 80's so my basement temp rose and so did my brew. I's risen about 5-6 degrees and is now at 76, maybe a little higher. Could this cause it to begin krausening again? It was at the high end of the finish gravity but may not have finished.
2nd krausening?

The rise in temperature could have increased the rate of fermentation (finishing the last few gravity points) or it could just be gas coming out of solution due to the temperature change.
If you take another gravity reading and it is lower you will know whether it was further fermentation.
