Just wondering if anyone has worked with Safale at the upper recommended range (package says the yeast should be fine up to 75F).
I have two beers fermenting right now, around 72F - I checked the temp during active fermentation via fermometer strips on the bucket, it never rose above 73F, and I pitched both after rehydrating the yeast, so it got off to a good start (airlock was bubbling 3 hrs after pitching)
So can anyone tell me if it'll turn out alright, or if the fusel alcohols will be high?
I'm sure it'll be drinkable, but I'm wondering how much benefit I'd see if next time I fermented at 68F
