I'm thinking of brewing an Oktoberfest Beer as my next beer. I was wondering at what temp to pitch my yeast at and how to bring to lager fermentation temp? Do I pitch at a warm temp like an ale then slowly bring it to lager temps, or pitch cooler? Last year I pitched at a higher temp like an ale then put it right into the fridge(controller set at 56 degrees) and it took a long time for fermentation to complete. The beer turned out great in the end, but fermentation took like 2 months alone.
