Well that explains it. Lager yeasts do like cooler temperatures. So yes, I'd fement it at the recommended temps.

Thank You Dave and Sam for your thoughts and insight. Brew day was Tuesday. It took longer than I thought it would, but had still had everything wrapped up by 9. The yeast is Salflager 34/70I found the basement to be cooler so I have decided to try…

+1 ( What Dave said!) Optimum fermentation temp varies widely by strain. Most ale yeasts, as Dave said, perform best (as far as us brewers are concerned) in the upper 60's. Having said that, it's more important to keep the temperature as steady as…

I don't know what yeast strain you're using, but I feel that 52-58 is usually a bit too cold for most ale yeasts. Usually the mid-upper 60's would be best. Yes temp does effect the time it takes for the beer to ferment, but also the warmer it fermen…

What about temperature?

Hi,

I'm about to join the Homebrew ranks, and English Brown Ale was suggested as a good kit to start with, since I like darker beers. Looking at the kit instructions, they say to ferment "ideally" at 52 - 58 degrees, for about 20 days. Alternately, one can ferment at 66 to 72 degrees for a shorter time of 7 - 10 days. So if the basement is somewhere between, it seems the time will be between these two options. Does this affect the final product to a great degree? I would think not, but???? Shou… Continue
