Hi everyone, my first post here (and i dont know if i am skipping some introduction).
I just have a question regarding airlocks / temp control and spunding valves.
I just made my first 100+ liters batch of a blond ale. I am using conical fermenters with a cooling cilinder inside to control temp ranges.
After 24 hs. yeast woke up and airlock began activity as normal. After another day, room temp went near upper limit of ideal temp and the cooling system started lowering just a few °F (1 °C) and stopped inmediatly.
After that action the airlock stopped. I suppose it just slowed the yeast work.
My question here is: with no airlock activity at all will my spund valve work? This was supposed to be my first test of the valve.. I was going to test it when near FG.
Any thoughts?
(If im missing more detail please tell me)
Thanks!
