Hi. Brewed a batch of Blueberry Wit 2 weeks ago. I usually run the temp controller and aquarium heating tape to regulate fermentation but i didnt have it set up properly. I recently switched to the stainless steel bucket conical style and set it in front of a spot heater in my basement. Ive beem turning the heater on for an hour or so once a day jusyvto make surw the beer stays in the mid 60s to low 70s. Today i went to work for 16 hoirs and accidentally left it on all day. It never shut off and what i failed to realize with the stainless buckets is how well they conduct heat. Long story short we are at 164 degress right now. Took a sample and the beer is on fire. At this point i know the yeast is dead. I already lnow the answer but.... it has to go down the drain right?
