I was crass and brewed a Sandy Blonde Ale on the morning the storm approached. The wort (pitched with California Ale V) was just starting to bubble when our power went out later that night. We stayed home for a couple of days while the initial fermentation was going strong. But then cooler weather came in and the family was forced to move out. By day 5, temperature in our house was 50, by day 7 we were in the lower 40s, and when we returned last night when power returned (day 12) temp was 39.
So, any thoughts?? Haven't taken a gravity reading, but wonder if my yeast will still be strong enough to condition and then bottle. Thought on flavor profile?? Did I really make a steam beer? Or a Lager??
