fermentation temeprature Ale

wats up so im brewing my first beer this weekend and i want some insight on fermentation temperature. I am brewing from a liquid malt extract kit from norhtenbrewer. It is a nut brown ale and it should take 4 weeks from start to finish for the entire beer process. I am gona leave my beer fermenting in my room and my rooms temperatures have been around 62 -64 recently. My question is would the yeast be put into dormancy because of the cold or my ok

 

I've begun fermenting at that temperature range and I like it. The yeast works slower and leaves a cleaner taste. I think you will need all 4 weeks in the fermenter before you bottle and carbonation will take a bit longer too. I prefer to let mine carbonate at 72 degrees and I usually can start drinking in a week to week and a half and it gets better tasting for the next couple weeks.

 

i appreciate the reply

 

I have fermented a Belgian Ale at slightly cooler than that before now and it has been ok. You might want to check your yeast strain though to be sure it won't go dormant. I'd take a hydrometer reading every now and again if poss to make sure fermentation is progressing and not getting stuck

 

Nottingham works great st that temperature... what kind of yeast do you have?

 

Sorry for respodig so late the the yeast is a Wyeast 1945 NB NeoBritannia. Sorry if im wording something wrong but this is my first brew. I am using a northern brewer deluxe starter kit and plan on brewing my first beer tomorrow. All advice is greatly appreciated so wat do u guys think about the yeast

 

NB says the min temp for that yeast is 66... so it might take a little longer to ferment. I dont think it will go dormant. But reading about it I see that is has mild ester production, and at that low of a temp... that might not come through.
