Currently fermenting an English pale ale and don't want much in the way of esters. Using yeast with recommended temp range of 64 to 72. I noticed that I let the temperature climb to 70 for the first 48 hours of fermentation. Will this produce esters?
Generally speaking, when do yeast produce esters? When you go over the temperature range, or when you hit the higher end inside the recommended temperature range?
