On saturday I brewed tranceamerica's Basic ME Pale Ale v.2. As I recently obtained a fridge I figured Id put it in there to help keep it cool during fermentation, what I have to ask is this-- How much does a fermentation temperature difference of 10 or 6 degrees make?
The recipe calls for 21 days at 70 and on average Ive had it at about 64*. Will this slow the fermentation making it need to ferment longer? or will it just come out a bit different? I can return it to the fan and towel method to keep it ~70* need be, but I probably wont have my keg build materials for about 3 weeks, so i could also let it ferment out in there.
Any input would be great.
thanks
