Hi guys,
Just getting back into brewing after a few years break from it. I started a brew on saturday consisting of thomas coopers IPA, 1kg light malt, 15g nelson sauvon hops, 15g citra hops, and 15g galaxy hops. I just used the yeast that came with the IPA.
The brew started around 27C and has slowly dropped to about 25C by today, not ideal temperatures I know but was just keen to get a brew on again. The airlock had sprung into life by Sunday morning and was going crazy. Got home from work and the airlock is now sitting dead even without a hint of bubbling. Took a Hydrometre reading and it's showing around 1013, close to what i'd expect at the end of fermentation. It started at 1042.
Any ideas on why this is. I'm assuming temperature, and how will this affect my beer?
Cheers
