Hi everyone, I brewed the Cottage House Saison recipe last weekend, which I didn't hit my OG from the mash so I added a little extra honey and some DME. But, not too worried so that aside, I ended up pitching Wyeast 3724 instead of 3711! Had no choice but so go ahead and see how it turns out. I understand that 3724 needs to be kept in the 80's and I thought that I'd be able to keep it there, but it's been pretty cool here in Chicago and it's sitting at around 75-78.
It was going well for the first two days but now it's pretty much stopped all activity, so I checked the gravity and it's at 1.040. I don't have any way to get the temp up right now and I'm wondering If I can just go pick up a pack of 3711 and pitch it in. What do you think?
Oh, by the way, I stole some of the gravity sample and it smells and tastes great! Still sweet of course but it's got that Saison aroma and taste to it so I'm really hoping this one comes out ok. Thanks!!
