I just got back from a home brewer meet, where I learned something (among other things) new...
Some of the other home brewers pitch (regardless of top or bottom fermenting) their yeast at room temp and then gradually drop the temp until they reach optimal fermentation temp.
I have been cooling my wort to optimal fermentation temp and then pitching the yeast. Obviously pitching warmer gets the yeast going earlier though...
What do you all do?
