FWK Pale ale

[Zelly]

hi there.

I am going to put down a FWK Pale ale,

using US05 yeast.

I do have temperature control,

what would the best temperature be for this style  and yeast 

thanks

18 to 20 degrees 20 will make it fire up and ferment faster than 18 some would say 18 makes a cleaner tasting beer. I'd be lying if said noticed a different but staying under 20 with that yeast is definitely a good idea.

if i am doing an ale  i  would look at keeping it at 20  with us-05  as it can be slow to start but its a good clean yeast

i think sitting 18  its going to take a bit to start fermation

I have found ( for me anyway ) 18c is the sweet spot for US-05, I have used it quite a few times & it normally takes up to 24-36 hours before any action, especially noticeable if you are using an airlock, it is one of my favourite yeasts.
