I'm brewing a double ipa with wyeast and the package says 65-72 degrees. I brewed last Friday and was fermenting on Saturday when I woke up (today is Wednesday btw). I'm sitting at 64 degrees (per the fermomentor). It seems to be fermenting just fine, still have a very active blow off, I've yet to check gravity. I've also got a HUGE head of krausen.
My question is about temperatures. I've heard of people raising temps after the first week or so. Should I be concerned that I'm not in the "ideal" range? Or should I just keep it as it is since I seem to be getting a good fermentation? I've read that temp control can turn good beer into great beer. Thoughts?
