I brewed a honey cream ale the other night and I've been using a blow off. Well when I came home from work today the tube wasn't in the water in the growler. At most I think I wasn't air locked for 8 hours. Everything seems fine now. Has anyone had this happen and how bad could it be?
So this is my first batch its an English Brown and my OG was right on at 1.040.. I took a reading after a week to see if I'm close to racking my secondary and it was 1.016 this still seems high. Am I still on target to rack at 2 weeks? Just looking for reassurance I didn't screw this up.
