Just looking for opinions/suggestions..
My second beer is going to be a hearty baltic porter. I ordered a kit from Northern Brewer with one of the recommended yeasts. The recommended yeast was Saflager S-23 which I didn't think much about when I ordered it. The yeast is a lager yeast, but the baltic porter is an ale. I don't really have the extra 'fridge to lager at this time so I want to be sure I don't need to get another yeast before I start. Do you have any suggestions or is this yeast fine and the 'lager' part just a misnomer? Will it ferment fine at or around 65-70 degrees?
