I read that alot of the brewers best kits say they use "a lager yeast that can be fermented at ale temps" now i am assuming the majority of the brewers best customers are new to brewing and do not have the ability to cool below 65 degrees. Does anyone know if they have a special lager strain? My apartment cannot get down below 68F with the AC on 24/7 and i would like to brew some octoberfest and american lagers. I have heard S-05 works well but i dont know if there is any yeast that works the best for lager taste at 70ish temps
(I have spent a few hours looking at ale yeast to use for lager and all i have found is S-05 and some white lab yeast like notting. As far as lager yeast everyone says cali yeast but that still needs to be kept at low 60s)
