Can beer ferment in 12 hours ?
I brewed last Friday. My SG was 1.054 and the estimated was 1.074. I rehydrated the Winsor yeast with Go Ferm. An hour later it was "going nuts". By late morning the next day there was no activity. Is it done? Is it going to taste OK? I couldn't find a "HELP" forum so I posted he...

Thanks guys! I guess I don't have to dunk that out. I'll try it every week and see if it changes.
