WLP400 temp question

[scottballz]

Hey everyone,
I just brewed a Belgian Wit on tuesday using WLP400. The O.G came out at 1.047 and I have had it in my basement now for 2 days with an ambient air temp of about 62 degrees. I do have the option of bringing it to an upstairs closet where the ambient temp is around 70 degrees. I just wanted to get some opinions from guys who have used this strain before on what they think is best.

I have used this strain. I would definitely move it higher if you're looking for that characteristic tartness. You may get more sulphur and penolic at the lower temps.

Definitely use a blowoff tube as well. This one can produce crazy amounts of krausen.

Thanks man, I started off with a blow off 2 days ago but I think the low temp may have slowed the fermentation a bit. hopefully bringing it up to 70 will help kickstart it a bit.
