I am using Whitelabs 013 London ale yeast, could the temp be too warm, if so how can I cool it?
That's prob a little warm but by now the yeast are near the finish of fermentation, if not done already. Your beer will be a little more estery than if your fermented at say 68F or so.
Next batch try putting your fermenter in a large tub, fill with water and add a couple frozen 2 liter bottles and swap them as they thaw. I you swap them in the morning and in the evening, you should b golden.
Now as for your FG, you could try rousing the fermenter and leave at the same temp and you may get it to drop one or two more points, maybe.
Let us know how it's tasting when you get it in bottles!
