Hey e'ryone...
I've been looking for posts on this but haven't found any strong answers. I pitched yesterday evening at 70* (WLP001), and put the carboy up on a wire shelf in my nice cool basement like I normally do, but I just got home and the crystal strip thermometer's reading 79*. I know that's too high, but I wonder if it's too late to do anything.
I could make a swamp cooler of put some ice packs around it, but I wonder if it's just too late. Should I do something quick to try and cool it down or let it finish and relax?
