I brewed my first BIAB last Sunday (Screwy's Irish Red), then no chilled and pitched a Wyeast 1084 Irish Ale yeast on Monday. OG was 1048. It is now Wednesday and has been approximately 48 hours (almost exactly) and temps have been sitting at 18-20*C. I just took a SG measurement - 1014. Is this normal?? 2 days and it's already down to the predicted gravity?
Obviously I'm going to leave it for longer - about 7 days, then rack to secondary for another 7 days, just curious is 1084 is normally fast acting like this? That's crazy. This was the first time I used liquid yeast too.
