Hello all,
Haven't posted much because things have been going well. I just finished up an oatmeal stout roughly two weeks ago, in which I brewed some local coffee beans and mixed the coffee in. Waiting impatiently to taste it! F.G. was very low, it'll be very stout-y. Tasting sample was like drinking molasses it was so thick.
In my fermenter is a Chico Suave Pale Ale kit from Great Fermentations. Apparently it's a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale inspired kit/clone.
The first week everything went perfectly. It is three days later (10 days total) and I went to bed after having some sake and forgot to exchange the ice bottles that keep my pump cooler chilled. I woke up and the temp was 75F... I quickly made the water cool again and it lowers the 5 gallon batch pretty quickly.
We can assume the temperature wasn't 75F all night but rose to it and sat there for a bit because while I'm awake, the temperature never got above 68F for this beer.
How will that affect my final product, 10 days after pitching yeast? Was looking forward to comparing it to the S.N. Pales in my fridge still, hoping it turns out well still.
Cheers
