Hey gang. I'm going to be making a wit with wlp400. This is the first time that I'll be making a belgian and the first time that I try to coax significant flavor from the yeast. Usually, I use more neutral strains and ferment low and clean. So I'm not certain about the best temperature for the yeast. I know white labs gives recommendations, but I was wondering if any people have ideal temps for this from past use. I want the flavor, but I don't want to go overboard with a hot fermentation.
Thanks!
