Hey,
Just got done brewing my second batch... A ESB and I used a WLP 002 yeast for my starter. I bought a cool brewing bag because 1)I don't have the room for a freezer I can control my fermentation temps 2) My first batch was a Imperial IPA and I kept it around the mid 70's so I wanted something to help with temps.... Anyways I started the first fermentation on Sunday and I got up on Monday to check my temps... It went from 64 to 61 over night... I took a bottle out to get my temps around 64-66 degrees.. Just a side note it did get up to 70 this AM because I didn't switch out my frozen bottles soon enough.
I noticed the fermentation started off strong but since Monday night it looks to have stopped and just quit.... Not foamy head or anything... Just wondering if I stopped the fermentation and what is a good temp range for WLP 002? Thanks I hope I don't leave anything out
