So this morning I come home from being out of town for work and my roommate decided to turn off our heat while he also left town.
Well.... the temperature was 60 when I walked in after a cold front came through and temps dropped to the upper 40’s. However, yesterday temps were in the upper 60’s and the day before it was in the mid 70’s. The two beers I have fermenting are both ales set to ferment at 67-68. The Krausen has significantly reduced and basically no bubbles in the airlock. What is the course of action to see if the yeast has gone dormant? I’m just curious if this will affect my bottling/carbonation due to possible flocculation of the yeast?
Ps. If you need specifics on the OG, yeast, etc. to give me a more specific answer I will post the BeerSmith profile
