I'm brewing a Belgian Tripel, which came out very heavy and I ended up with a higher volume.
I pitched probably about 300 billion yeast cells, into well aerated wort and it started rolling within 8 hours!
The 7 gallon carboy is filled almost up to where it tapers and the Krausen started forming right away, nice and healthy!
The next day, I had a problem with my furnace not turning off all day. The ferm temp was up to 75 degrees at one point (which is well within the range of the yeast, but I'm afraid got too warm too early).
It's somewhat an earthquake constantly in my hous with three toddlers running and bouncing off the walls (literally).
I don't know if it was the house tremors or the ferm temp that caused the krausen to fall so early. It's chugging away quite nicely still and smells really nice, but looks a little weird with the dense dark krausen that is barely there and falls soon after it gathers.
Just wondering if anybody has any thoughts on the matter. Thanks in advance.
