I'm going to do my second lager on Saturday and I was wondering what temperature to use for the starter?
Typically with an ale started I would use the range used for the beer (e.g. 68-75), but does it make sense to do the same for a lager?
Should I keep the temp of the lager down around feremmentation temperature of 50 degrees F or does it make more sense to do it up around 70degrees?
I imagine whatever temperature promotes the creation of new healthy yeast is best, I just don't know what that temp is
Thanks,
Jaime
