I'm still seeing falling snow out of the window and, as it is it still heating season, it is relatively easy to keep moderate indoor temperatures in the mid-60F range which seems to suit most yeasts. However, as it is now officially spring, I expect that we'll eventually get a blast of warm weather before I decide to put the AC in. The house might warm up to mid to high 70s during the day.
I'm trying to put together a rough "schedule" of beers that might be less susceptible to temperature fluctuations and still produce a nice product. Off the top of my head I am thinking of a partial mash hefeweizen, which might ferment to style if it gets a little on the warm side.
Any other suggestions for brews that are relatively heat insensitive? Cold, lighter, less malty brews for the summer heat would be welcome.
