Put my first batch in the carboy yesterday for fermenting. True Brew branded Nut Brown Ale. Checked on it after about 10 hours and it was bubbling away nicely but this morning it seems to have slowed. There is still bubbling in the airlock but not as much as last night. I assume thats probably normal but would like your oppinion?
Btw, if i read the hydrometer correctly OG was 1.034 and has an potential ABV of 5.5%.. Does this sound about right for that brew?
I know ideal temp for fermenting is 70, but would say 66-67 cause an issue?
I have the carboy back in a spare bedroom, I keep the house at 69 in the winter but that room always feels slightly colder.
