Fermentation Notes, Brown Frown, 1/19/10

No foam in the drum tap at +7 hours.

At +15 hours, there was lots of a foam in the drum tap and the room smells like yeast burps. excellent.

When I got home, the fermentor was at about 77F in a 72F room, so I threw a wet towel on it to try and keep the temp lower while the yeast are still in high gear. This little period of warmness won't make the beer too fruity I doubt, but I'll probably be conditioning in primary for 3 weeks giving the little buggers plenty of time to clean up any funky stuff they are makin right now.
