Uh oh.... I pitched two packs of re-hydrated Safale S04 at around 80F or less. Brought it down to 60F in about 5 hours or less. In less than 12 hours it's already fermenting away with force. Keeping it at a steady 59.7-60F
I messed up on a few sanitary things by accident and I didn't want to leave room for something else to take over so I pitched as soon as I could. I know this is not a good temp nor the technique that should be used, It should be the opposite, pitch lower than fermenting temp and let it rise.
What I was wondering is if the time I took to bring it down will save it or there is a greater chance that I get nasty esters/fusel taste I want to cry...
Thank you all!! As usual! <3
