pitching too high temperature?

[beer gut]

I always pitch my yeast in at 72f however i have just learnd from brew lab brewing course that you always pitch your yeast at a lower temp you want to ferment at becacause the yeast creates heat while the yeast is budding so the heat created while fermenting brings the temp up to your desired fermenting temp. if you pitch the yeast in at the temp you want to ferment at the extra heat created by the budding yeast could bring the temp of fermentig beer above your desired fermenting temp and this could create off flavours like Bannana type flavour/aroma or even a pear drop type aroma you could even get if you are unlucky a arosole or sulpha type flavour in your ale.

Hi steve no worries about the confusion.I would recomend you pitch your yeast into your 5 gall wort at 18c. i think the best temp to ferment at 18c to 23c but the perfect temp to ferment at is 20c this way you get a good balance of fruity esters from the yeast.The spec sheet from brew labs on there yeast slope fermentaton and cultifations yeast and there recomend to ferment from15c to 23c however there also recomend that you don't pitch yeast below 18c.I would also recomend that you airate your wort when it has cooled down to your pitching temp before you pitch your yeast this way you are giving the yeast everything it needs to start budding and turing your wort into ale.
