9 days after brewing a Belgian Wheat Ale (Whitelabs WLP400 liquid yeast), my primary fermenter temp accidentally went out of the suggested range of 70-75 F. It got up to 83.5 F for about 7 hours, but now is back down to 78 F. Sometimes it gets as low as 67 F when it's really cold. I had a brew belt on for the snowstorm, and then the weather got warm out of nowhere today and I forgot to unplug the belt.
Is this going to cause off-flavors in the beer? I know I need a stable fermenter chamber, but it's not gonna happen for a few more months.
