I am just mashing in on my 2nd pressure fermentation. I am doing a West Coast IPA and pitching with Imperial Dry Hop. I am going to be using a Fermzilla All Rounder with a spunding valve. Last batch I attached the spunding valve after 24 hours and set to 10 PSI.
I do have the ability to temperature control my fermentaion. My ground water can get the wort down to about 80-85 when I am chilling.
Can I pitch the yeast at 80-85 and ignore the temperature contol?
Edit: After doing some more reading I see that I should pitch at the recommended temp but I can allow it to rise in temp after that. Anyone have recommendations of how warm I can/should let it get?
