It's starting to get really, really warm by me and I'm a little afraid of fermenting in my apartment that doesn't have central A/C.
Right now I have a Honey Wheat beer sitting in the fermenter for over 3 weeks, I'm going to bottle it this weekend because it's starting to get warm and I don't want any off-flavors from the hot yeast to get into my beer.
But more importantly, I have a Corsendonk clone that I'm waiting to brew. Can anyone tell me if there's any issue in brewing the wort on say, sunday night... quickly cooling the wort down to 80 degrees, but hold off on pitching the yeast until monday morning when I drive the beer out to my parents house which has central A/C?
First question is, is there any issue with not pitching the yeast right away?
Second question is, is there any issue with all the swirling around the wort will do in my car while i drive it out to my parents?
Thanks in advance for your help guys.
