Bugger. So after work today i went to check on my strong golden ale, and i found that the temperature of the fermentation chamber was at 62 F. Apparently my temperature control was broken... crap double crap...
So i jerry-rigged some wiring and got the light (my heater) to go back on.
Too low of a fermentation temperature when fermenting a strong ale like this could cause:
1. a Stuck Fermentation (doesn't ferment all the way down)
2. too much estery flavors in the beer. which, might be OK, depending upon the result.

Oh, no! I hope it doesn't ruin the Belgian ale. Although I suppose being too cold isn't as bad as being too hot.
