I did a search and didn't find an exact match for my question:
If you cannot accurately measure the actual wort temperature, what is the ideal ambient temperature for a fermentation room? I have mine set at 58 degrees and am wondering if that is about right. The fermentation is going well but seems to be going on longer than I am used to ( BRITISH ALE 2 YEAST...never used this yeast strain before) so am I in the ball park?
