+1 to this. Even an ale yeast is gonna sweat out some unpleasant flavors working at those temps. Getting it down to 12 - 14'c would be better but even at 18'c you'll end up with something akin to a california steam ale. I understand that they're brewed on lager yeasts at ale temperatures.Vini2ton said:I'd try and get the temp down somehow. Waterbath wet towel or something like that. That kit was one of my favorites and I think the kit yeast is a true lager. 24C is too high. Maybe around 18ish would scrape through unscathed.
I just do it in the primary fermenter for 1 week cold crashed.Yowie4815 said:Transfer into a second fermenter to settle any solids
