A pilsner yeast is a lager yeast. Lagers need to be fermented cold. It looks like White Labs suggests 10-13°C for that strain. Here is a link to that strain on White Labs' website.
Ouch, how will the yeast react to such high temps? A lot of rubbing alcohol / fruity off-flavors + need to repitch yeast before bottling?
oh is 23 degrees fine for white labs pilsner

can i save it its only like 4 days now if i bring it to my ac room will it be better
Dunno, you'll have to inform us. It might have an interesting profile, something like a California Common (Steam beer).How bad will it make it
Leave it for a while at lager temps, then let it warm up to room temp for a diacetyl rest, then package and let age. No matter what, you've made beer. It's going to be estery and maybe phenolic, but that's just what yeast does when it's not in its comfort zone.How do I know when to transfer it to secondary?
Where do I post this profile?
