Tricky problem. Been brewing at a friends place and fermented in his fridge. The warmest it gets is about 56, and leaving it out is 80. So we opted for the colder side with s-05. We brewed a blond at 1.043OG. After 3 weeks we needed to keg it. Pulled a sample but we were also brewing so in the...

I had to keg much later than expected. Beer went into the keg on Tuesday, but had to sit at room temp. I set the co2 to 30 for 24 hours, then got the keg into an ice bath for another 24 hours. The ice bath didn't keep cool too long, and I wasn't home to monitor anything. Anyways, added more ice...
