I brewed a 5 gallon batch of Hopslam clone on Sunday, pitched 2 packets of rehydrated S-05 and then put the carboy in the cellar. Checked it last night and it was sitting at 58 and throwing a bubble every 20 seconds or so (I figured the yeast would bump the temp in to the low sixties with active fermentation). Got home tonight and went to the cellar, temp dropped to 48 on the carboy and was still bubbling about the same. I put the carboy into my 10 gallon drink cooler and put 2 wool sweaters over it. Did I hurt my yeast? It a big beer and I don't want to stall out of the gate... HELP PLEASE!
