Possible To Cook Yeast In The Bottle?

[Trent]

Gday all
My mates all threw in and bought me all the ingredients to make em a few batches of strong ale to give to their dad's for xmas (notice how I got them to buy the ingredients, and I didnt sell them any beer? Keeps it legal, I think. Oh, and they didnt give me any money or anything either, I just did it cause they are good mates). Anyway, the beer has been sitting in a cupboard for the last few weeks in the garage, and we have had some pretty hot days, and tonight I went to pack em away, held em up to the light to check for clarity, and they all seem to have some little flaoties in suspension, not alot, but a few. Worse still, instead of a fine layer of yeast at the bottom, there is little dots the same size as the floaties about 1/2 inch up the bottle. I have never seen this before, and I know that it has gotten very hot over the last week or 2, but I have no where else to put them. I have a bottle in the freezer now to check that it is carbonated and not completely stuffed, but I wanna know if it is possible to cook the yeast in the bottle? It hasnt gotten above 38, and the yeast was 1968. I dont care, as long as the beer tastes OK and is carbed, but I will need to know for future reference.
All the best

Trent, have you used 1968 before, if so what results, any floaties. I have two brews in secondary at present, an IPA and an English Bitter, same yeast for both. English Bitter has floaties, IPA has none. !!!!!

Gday guys
Tried one last night after I got offline, and it tasted OK, but with a couple (not too many) floaties here and there. Otherwise it was crystal clear. I am putting it inside to keep it out of the heat now. There was maris otter, carawheat and caramalt in it, so I dont know if it is suspended protein in it, but thankfully it doesnt seem to be an infection (I am usually pretty pedantic about sanitation anyway). I thin kthe hops were POR for bittering, and hallertauer finishing, it was a recipe Doc put up once. I have used this yeast quite a few times before, Screwtop, but I have never had this result. It certainly isnt my favourite yeast, I find sometimes I get a really overpowering yeast aroma and flavour in some of my bottles, so I think I am gonna switch to 1028.
Thanks again for the feedback, looks like I was just being a paranoid freak.
All the best
