Ok, I am wondering if I have a problem. When I pitched my yeast(Nottingham)
the wort was 75- 80 degrees. The fermentation took off as usual and lasted about 3 days. Over this weekend I was away and someone took out a poll in the neiborghhood and my heat went out. (Wood pellet stove). I had it wrapped in a blanket and a thermometer on it to monitor temp. The temp. fell to 55 degrees. Being this is an ale will this big temp. swing do anything to the beer or will it be ok? What if anything will this temp. change do to the beer? Should I keep it cool now or warm it back up? Maybe turn into a hybrid ale-lager.
Cheers, Happy Holidays
