I brewed last night and the wort OG (well-stirred) was 1.039 at 85 F (corrected to 1.042). I left the hydrometer sample out and two hours later noticed it had dropped to 1.020 at 72 F. The next morning it was 1.000 at 65 F.
Is this normal? Is it just fermenting super fast? It seems like way too much of a drop, too fast. The sample was taken before pitching the yeast, so any fermentation would be due to natural airborne yeast.
What's going on?
