Actually, this makes sense. I didn't have a fermentation fridge, only a heat pad, a fridgemate, a blanket, and the ambient temperatures in my shed in June. I'm only really controlling the lower bounds of temperature, i.e. only making sure it doesn't get too cold. I didn't think too hot was a possibility given the conditions.
I'm having a hard time imagining the beer deviating too much from winter ambient temps in outer Melbourne (10-14C max), but it's possible, I suppose.
Does anyone know what "too hot" is in the case of S189?
I'm pretty sure Warren used this yeast early in the year and the temp got up to around 16c and it was still an excellent beer.
