What lager yeast is available in dry or liquid that works well in warmer temps. I may have a difficult time getting my carboy down into the 40’s low 50’s.
Thanks BV
The standard answer is going to be a California Common yeast- Wyeast 2112
Even that one should be fermented in the low 60’s F.
Might have better luck using a clean ale yeast- US05/1056/001
Just finished two batches using 1056 & 001.
wyeast 2124 and saflager 34/70 is probably a good choice.
+1 to WY 2124/830/34-70. They ferment pretty cleanly into the mid 50s.
My recommendation too.
Maybe that Kolsch yeast from Marshalls exbeeriment? Can’t remember it offhand but didn’t he ferment a mock lager in the 60s with the strain and it was indistinguishable from cold fermented 34/70 to tasters?

2124 for me also. Fantastic and versatile yeast strain! Even into the low 60s as I did with my cali common
2124 seems to be the yeast of choice.
Thanks
One more vote for 2124. Have used both smack-pack and dry. Also repitched 6 generations. D-rest to 70F.
