Hi everyone. I brewed a barleywine using WY1028 last Saturday and started fermentation at 64F (18C). After high krausen I ramped up to 70F (21C) and plan to hold it there until the 3-4 week mark. Afterwards, I plan to transfer to secondary for bulk aging for at least 6 months. My question is - what temperature would you recommend for the secondary? Keep in mind that I can control for heat, but for cooling I can only go as low as my basement temps around low to mid 50s F (low 10s C). My original thought was to keep it at 70, but in my research others have recommended much lower temps. What would you recommend?
