I made a Kolsch, and I pitched the Whitelabs Kolsch yeast for it. It lagged pretty bad... took about 36 hours to start. Now it's bubbling though, but only about 1-2 bubbles per minute at this point.
I know that Whitelabs says the ideal range for this yeast is lilke 65-69F or so. Right now it is at 72F.
My question is, should I leave it at 72 until it starts bubbling faster, or should I go ahead and reduce it to the correct temperature right now?
In other words, will getting it in the ideal range slow down the fermentation back down if it hasn't started roaring yet?
