Working on my first brew (heavy spiced pumpkin ale) brew dropped 5degrees below optimal fermentation temp (60 f)but was bubbling savagely for 5-6 days prior. Now it slowed. Do I need to heat up or is this just natural slowing due to lack of food for yeast?
Also when I put in secondary fermenting bucket from carboy this weekend (week 2) how long until I prime and bottle on average for 5 gal batch?
Used: I don’t have exact names offhand posting from work lol.
Mix of grain and amber malt extract
Pumpkin
2 tblsp Pumpkin spices
1 cup brown sugar
1tsp vanilla
American ale yeast smack pack
2 hops during boil I think mountain something and centennial
