First time post, and of course, it's because I did something wrong-ish.
I'm rehydrating my yeast, and planned on putting into my cooled wort... but I didn't manage to cool the wort enough before putting it in the fermenting bucket, and it's sitting at 80 F, right now. The yeast has been rehydrating for about 30min (Windsor Ale Yeast), instuctions say to do it for 15min, stir and let sit for another 5min... so I'm 10min over, already.
Can yeast sit and rehydrate for more than 30min? It's in a sterile water solution (boiled and cooled)
