ok so i was trying to rehydrate my yeast today (us05) i boiled some water and let it cool down. it got to cool before i was able to add the yeast so i went ahead and dumped the yeast in and put it on the stove to raise the temp a tad. i ran to the bathroom real quick and came back. the water got TOO hot!! it was like 140 degrees! so im thinking i may have killed the yeast. i pitched it anyways just to see since it's the only yeast i have. if i dont notice any activity tomorrow is it ok the add more yeast?? is the wort still ok a day or two after brewing?? i may have to go get some yeast which is a 45 minute drive so im not sure exactly when ill get to go. will the wort be ok for a day or two?
