Hello all,
I started a batch of Scottish Ale 36 hours ago. The fermentation took off VERY quickly, so fast that the temperature went up over 80 degrees. The kraeusen dropped in to the beer at 18 hours and the yeast started to sediment. Now the temp is back down to 74 but fermentation has all but stopped. The beer is still cloudy and I'm wondering if it has an infection. Any ideas? Advice?
Much Thanks!
