Should I be worried?
Brewed a 7 gallon mini mash oatmeal stout with brown sugar and used Nottingham, 2 packs. Pitched at 70 and it got up to 73 degrees within the 1st 24 hours. I have the fermenter in an cooler and it's covered with a dry towel which helps keep the temps regulated. I have it in a water bath and use a frozen 2 liter to cool down the temps. I got it to 69 and was worried it might be too cold, thats when I double checks Nottingham's temps and saw that I let it get a bit too high. It's stayed at 69 for the past several days now. I think it should turn out fine, I just want to hear what others might say.
