I just brewed an extract IPA and I am using US-05 yeast. Now that we are in the warmer months, the downstairs in my house is in the low 70's. During the winter I was fermenting around 64-65 degrees. I have the option of keeping my fermenter in a closet where my well tank is. It stays around 66-67 there. Where am I better off?
I plan on primary only for about 3 weeks and then kegging. I see that people go to great lengths to control their temps but I'm not sure the ideal temperature range for fermenting an ale? Some yeasts and recipes give temperature ranges of 10-15 degrees. That's a big difference and must affect the quality of the beer. Thank you
