    Did my yeast die...oops

    Brewed 10 gallons of a pale ale Thursday, everything went well. Began brewing 10 gallons Saturday morning and realized when I put my pale ale in the fermentation fridge that I forgot to set the temp....meaning that it was still set at cold crash temps. (it was at 37 degrees when I noticed)...

    Did I ruin 15 gallons?

    Had 10 gallons of California common and 5 gallons of a DIPA reach FG. Dryhopped the DIPA and forgot to tape the temp probe to the side of the fermentor. The temp went up to 80 degrees for probably less than 24 hours. What should I expect?

    Storing Force carbed kegs?

    After force carving 5 gall Corny what is the best way to store it? Summer is approaching and I'd hate to spoil any. I've let a few kegs of uncarbed beer sit in my cold garage for about 3_weeks. Anyone see any issues with that?

    Cold Crash before natural carbing in keg?

    I have almost 30 gallons ready to keg and do not have enough CO2 line for all. Question is if I prime in the keg for natural carbonation will the cold crashing leave me enough yeast? If I cold crash for 7 days at 35 do I let it warm up before kegging it? Thanks dano (yes im new...
