I just finished up brewing a batch of Scotch Ale (Wee Heavy variety). Hit my OG right on target at 1.063 and the brewing process went very well considering its only my 2nd time. But of course I had to screw up the last step and not stir the wort while cooling with the immersion chiller. The temp read 74deg and I thought I was good so I put the yeast (Wyeast American Ale 1056) in the primary bucket and poured the wort right into the bucket (palmer method). Took a gravity reading and a temp reading and flipped out when the temp read 84deg. I was able to get it cooled to 80deg within 15 minutes of pitching and it is currently sitting in a 64deg basement. Is this going to turn out ok or am I going to get a lot of off-flavoring?
