On Sunday I brewed a Hefeweizen that came out at 13.8 plato. Monday - 24 hours later, the gravity has dropped to 3.57 plato. My FG is usually around 2.56.
Fermentation temp is 70 degrees.
Pitching rate is around 8 million cells/ml
Should I be expecting any ill effects from this batch's quick fermentation? I don't normally see this kind of gravity drop until the 3rd day. So far, everything smells fine and seems to taste in line with what I would expect.
I may have just figured out the answer, but can somebody confirm? This is a little higher pitch rate than I normally run. I am usually around 5-6 million cells/ml.
Thanks.
