A heating pad under the fermentor or an electric blanket will work too. There are also heaters made for fermentors like the brew belt that will do the job. Lots of options.

There is no L8, but the other ones are bones in your spine. Discs are usually referred to as something like L4/5 because they are between those bones. BTW, "pulled muscles" don't last 8 years, you...

+1
By the way, smack packs don't have to inflate to be used, it is an indication the yeast is healthy, but not necessary.

Also, two weeks is really early for a big beer like that. Many RIS need 3-6 months of aging to become drinkable, and do even better with 9-12+. That's going to be a ton of oak flavor for a 2 gallon...

That's possible, or consider a tub of water to set the fermentor in and occasionally drop in fresh frozen 2 liter bottles of water to keep the temp down.

For Eugene I'd say Bier Stein, Falling Sky, Steelhead, and Ninkasi.
For Bend, try Boneyard, Crux, and Deschutes.
For Portland, look up all the previous threads on here.

Probably their house Alt yeast. They treat it slightly differently to get different effects, but for blondes they seem to ferment cooler to get a lager like effect.

I really liked Moylan's, but Novato is a distance out from San Francisco proper. Tons of beers on the taster there, get help with them or have a driver.

Airlock bubbling is just off gassing CO2 from colder wort as it warms up.
I hope it restarts and ends well for you, though.

You could also have used your secondary vessel for the primary for the next beer and skipped the whole secondary step on this stalled beer. Secondary is generally unnecessary.

Avoid S-33. Not a saison, or even Belgian, yeast. If you use 3711 or 3724 you'll get spicy/peppery and fruity, and some funk with the 3724. Spicy flavor can also come from the hops.

Nottingham fermented cool (58-60) will make a pretty clean beer. I just used it in a smash with pilsner and magnum, and it turned out very lager like.

Saflager 34/70 would be the only other dry lager yeast to try. Why not try the exact same recipes with that yeast to compare? If they have the same familiar off taste, it isn't the yeast.

So, how about more information so we can help you? Recipe, mashing temps/procedures, fermentation temperature, how long the beer has been fermenting, oxygenation?
