ambient ferment room temp

[OHIOSTEVE]

I have been having some fermentation issues and I am wondering if my temp is too low....I cannot attach the probe to a carboy because there is usually several different beers in several stages of fermentation so I just have the probe hanging in the middle down by the fermentors...my go to yeast is s-05 BUT I do use notty,,,,s-04.... and on occasion wlp004 irish ale...and british aleII...... so my question is what is a good generic ambient temp that would be sufficient for all of these yeasts?

Noooooo 66F could get above 70 which would suck for S-04. Use the yeasts differently and refer to the manufacturers' instructions regarding actual fermentation temp (5-7 degrees above ambient at normal gravity), erring on the low side of the given range. Only use yeasts together (in the same place) that both work with that temp.

For ales, you only need good temperature control for the first 3 to 5 days as the yeast chow down on the easy sugars. After the ferment slows down you can let the beer come to room temp for the remainder of the ferment period. http://www.brewgeeks.com/the-life-cycle-of-yeast.html

I ferment the chamber air at 60 to 61 that way my notty yeast can rise to 65 during high kerosene. and no problems should arise with 05 as it can can go as low as 59 according to their site

US-05 can get peachy at lower temperatures
