hey peeps,
I have an IPA that has been sitting in the primary for about 11 days. It appears that all activity has ceased. I pitched a German Ale Y pack and its been sitting happy at about 72 after a few days of yeast fiesta. BUT, the temp in my brew rose up to about 80 for about a day at day 10 bc of neglect on my part. Any thoughts on effects or experience with this? thanks!
 
If it had been earlier in the process, 80*F would have had a pretty negative effect. At day 10, however, you were very likely at FG so that a day at 80*F is probably not going to mess things up much if at all.
