Lalbrew New England Ale Yeast Temperature

Anyone ferment with this yeast at the high end? My fermentation chamber is full and my basement temp is 68. So I will probably get to 72 or so at high krausen.

I've used it at that range with good results (definitely conan strain). One of the pros with this yeast is the ester profile that works well with hops, and the way to unlock that is by using the temp-range you're at! I would personally pitch around 66ish and allow it to free-rise in the basement.

Thanks it's a NEIPA so hopefully it will turn out good.
