I just finished brewing this Helles Bock recipe from my LHBS: What The Helles Bock. I went with the dry yeast which uses Safale US-05. It looks like the liquid yeast is WLP833 and ferments in the lager range (48-55 F). The recommended temp range for US-05 is 64-70 F, I am wondering if I should attempt to keep the temps on the very low end of the range to stay true to the style?
I have a fermentation chamber that will let me control the temps, wondering if I should target an ambient temperature around 58-60 or go the route I have gone with this yeast in other ales which is an ambient in the mid 60s and fermentation temp of approx 68?
