Temperature control wise. It's hot in my place most of the time and I really have no control over that because of my room mate who owns the place. My fermentation spot is around 74 ambient. I can control the temp of fermentation with a wet t-shirt and ice bottles, but, do I only have to do that during primary fermentation? After primary fermentation is over, can I transfer to secondary and not have to worry about major ester production from the yeast and let if clarify at warmer temps? ?
My question with yeast is about harvesting. Is it better to harvest the ones from primary or secondary fermenters? I ask because I just harvested the yeast from my primary for my Belgian ale and there's already a good bit settling out in the secondary. Which is more viable?
