Hey all, I made a 1.033 2 liter starter last night for Wyeast American Ale II 1272. I pitched the pack to the starter at 77f and left at an ambient temp of 77-80 overnight. This morning it's stirring away and an infrared thermometer tells me the starter itself is at 85. Is this going to stress or harm the yeast? I plan to crash and decant. Thanks!
