    primary fermenter got up to almost 80 degrees? Did I kill my yeast?

    I brewed it on Friday...Didn't really start "moving" untill Sat...Thats why i said 4 days...I put it in a water bath as soon as I realize what had happened...it's in a room with an ambient temp of about 67 degrees. I guess it will be fine. I was under the assumption that it would "percolate"...

    primary fermenter got up to almost 80 degrees? Did I kill my yeast?

    it's been going since friday. not sure about the OG (wife threw away the box) like i said im kinda clueless about certain stuff as this is my first rodeo...It's an IPA if that helps...is 4 days of "percolation" a reasonable amount of time?

    primary fermenter got up to almost 80 degrees? Did I kill my yeast?

    ...but what if it stopped showing signs of releasing CO2 or...bubbling at the air lock

    primary fermenter got up to almost 80 degrees? Did I kill my yeast?

    Here in Va we had a cold spell that forced me to wrap my primary fermenter bucket in a blanket. It stayed at 66-68 in there. Today the temp. went up to nearly 75 or so while i was at work, thus heating my wort to about 78ish degrees. Am I skrewed? Thanks...
