Twmp jump

[dirtybasementbrew]

I had my brew at 56 ambient temp, thermometer on fermenter read 67, my wife let the door open this morning and the thermometer read 78 when I got home. Bubbling came almost to a halt, is this a lost batch or can I try to bring temp down as quickly as possible?

How long has it been fermenting?

 

[cheezydemon3]

What yeast?

I would let it continue, but plan on aging it at least 6 weeks.

How long has it been fermenting?

2 days U S 05

ooooooohhhh! Do 64 twmp jumps and 3 hail marys and let it sit warm for at LEAST 2 months.

I had 2 days @ 65, and the door bumped open in Fla and spent about 8 hours at 90F...

I am enjoying the beer now. Not the greatest ever, but not bad at all.

Did u let stay warm or try to drop temp

Actually is was 2.5 days before the heat.

No.. cranked back to 60ish for another week and a half

You may get lucky, as I did, because US05 starts quickly and vigorous fermentation usually stops in 2 to 2.5 days.

Liquid yeast might have really hurt you here.

I got the fermenter down to about 70 and dropping. i already have airlock activity in about 20 min

I just talked to my father in law, he left the door open when he took my son out of the room after his nap. So the temp only rose to 78 I about 1/2 hour. Does this change anything?

 

[twistr25]

No you should be fine

 

[cheezydemon3]

MAYBE fine. Hopefully.

Does it smell of banana? (right after the airlock burps)

The whole room has a sweet smell not so much banana?

GOOD! Last one I had that got too warm had a scent of banana.

Fortunately it was an over the top IPA, so nobody noticed the hint of banana but me.
