Hey All,
I'm awaiting delivery of some WLP002 (English Ale Yeast) presently that shipped Monday evening from Midwest Supplies (I'm in NJ). I paid for the ice-gel pack, but know that those--kind of a waste, really--only stay cool for a few hours when not in an insulated box.
It's been in the low 90s here, and I fear that my yeast will get here cooked...or just not viable.
Can anyone talk me off the ledge?
For what it's worth, I'll be refrigerating it as soon as I get it and will be doing a starter this evening with my new stir plate. Brew day's tomorrow, early afternoon.
THANKS, gang!
