I'm trying to batch up some Wyeast Kolsch yeast for an up-and-coming brew. My question relates to correct/optimal propgation temperature ... Wyeast's website recommends 75oF (24oC), however Kolsch yeast is happily fermenting at 55-64oF (13-18oC).
So, should I propgate at 75oF or 60oF to get 'best' propogation outcome? And how would you define 'best' (fastest? most healthy/viable? pitch-ready?).
Any advice and/or experience welcome...
Thanks.
