Noob brewer here...
So my 1st real batch is brewing. I started last month with Mr.Beer kit then I aquired all the equipment to do my own brew.
All seem to be going well after I made my wort. I oxygenated the wort well,added the yeast at the reccomended temps,covered it and put the airloc in. The 1st day the ambient temps in the room were about 64 and the brew was right at 70. Right where its supposed to be according to the kits instructions. The 2nd day showed a lot of action in the airloc. Every 2 seconds I had a bubble come up.
On the 3rd brew day I noticed very little airloc bubbling. Somehow, I think my wife turned the room temp down and the brew temp dropped down to about 64-66 degrees. I saw a bubble in the airloc every 10-15 seconds...maybe even 20.
Should I be concerned that the low temp ruined my brew or does airloc action slow down after so many days of fermenting?
I have since raised room temp up and the fermenter shows temps at 68-70.
Thanks!
