....your probe gets knocked off the carboy and your perfect 67 degree ferment skyrockets to 96 degrees thanks to a rogue fermwrap.
I was fermenting a Janet's Brown, brew day went great, and I would say it had 5 good days at 67. I went into the garage to add my dry hop, and to my horror, saw the probe laying on the floor. First time I had this problem, and will be sure to double up on the tape for my next batch. I thought about feeding it to the worms, but said screw it, and threw in 2oz of Centennial anyway.
It's a big beer, and I make it a little bit more roasty than Tasty does, so I am banking on the huge hop aroma and roasted flavor to mask any problems. Any similar experiences? If so, how did things turn out?
