Not sure if this is a beginner forum question or not, so please move the thread if need be.
Is it necessary to have a FermWrap hooked up to a fermenter for the entire time a beer is in the primary? Or can you remove the FermWrap once FG is achieved and then let the yeast clean up at ambient temperature?
*Note that I do not use any type of fermentation chamber. The fermenter and FermWrap/Inkbird setup sits in the closet of a room whose temperature right now fluctuates from 59-66 degrees.
I ask because I have a Belgian singel hooked up to a FermWrap and an Inkbird, and everything has been working fine. However, I have another brew that is lagging after nearly 48 hours, and I'm hoping to jumpstart fermentation with the FermWrap. It's been a cold snap here, and I think the yeast may be sleepy given the low room temps.
