I'm currently brewing my first batch of beer and chose a blonde ale. I checked the SG before adding the yeast and it was right at 1.050, right where it wa supposed to be according to the instructions. The temperaure of my house is 77 but the thermometer on the fermenter reads 75. It was 77 when I added the yeast - Safale US 05. The fermentation started within 12 hours and was very active for about 24 hours, then not so active for the next 24 hours, and now not active at all for the last 24 hours. Could it have fermented too fast because the temperature may have been too warm or is the quick fermentation normal. Should I still leave it for a week in primary before moving it to secondary or should I move it sooner?
