Hey,
I was making my 4th batch of beer, supposed to be like a Stotch Ale using malt extract with some specialty grains . I didnt use a starter, but I rehydrated the yeast before pitching it. Managed to get the temp just under 70 degress before pitching it, maybe 68 but ive been having weird fermentation and I may have messed it up.
Pretty much, in the first two days its went from 1.052 to 1.010 in gravity. Pretty much looked all settled out so i transfered it to a secondary. Its been in the secondary for about 2 weeks now and Im planning on transfering it in 1 week. There still seems to have a few little half inch to inch size bubble zones on the surface.
Any ideas whats going on or if I messed something up? I think it may have been too hot. Think its gonna mess up the flavor?
