I just brewed a Pale Ale using White Labs London Ale yeast. When I pitched the yeast, my temp was at 66 degrees. The yeast instructions said to start it at 70 to 75, so I used a heater to heat the room up a bit. A day and a half later, my temp was at 76 degrees. I then turned the heat down and it is holding at 70. Is my beer going to have bad fruity off flavors? Is there anything that I can do to salvage it? My recipe is below:
3.3 lbs Munton's light liquid extract
3 lbs Munton's light DME
.5 lbs crystal malt (steeped for 15 min. at 150)
1.5 oz Northern Brewer hops - 60 min.
1 oz US Golding hops - 5 min.
London Ale yeast from starter
I added the liquid extract at the beginning of the boil, which I now know is not the ideal thing to do.
Please let me know what you think.
Thanks!
