^^^ This is what I meant with my first post
I'm not saying either person is right or wrong. Actually, pretty positive both know what they are doing! I ferment Lutra in the low 70s. It gets fairly crisp after some lagering. I don't get a super strong character from it, but it's definitely a different flavor. Every setup and palate is different.
@Tony B I say try a "cleaner" style of beer with Lutra at some point if your cooling setup is limited. That might be the the blonde ale if it was a pretty simple recipe. Let your own taste buds decide if you like Lutra. I've definitely enjoyed some Lutra pilsners fermented in the lower 70s. It won't give you a traditional kölsch or helles, but it does make beer. If you like it then go with it.
You might have enough success with evaporative cooling using the towel to get into a reasonable range for some other yeasts too. Depends on the ambient temp and humidity. Some good suggestions above.
Agreed with
@Miraculix about Belle too. Belle has way more character to me when fermented in the low 70s vs 90s. And how did this become a saison thread?!?
Not complaining
