    The beer is in the secondary fermenter and I just added the fruits. The question I have is related to the temperature it should stay at. Should I keep the beer at the yeast preferred temperature during the aging with fruit (67F) or should I go lower?
    It is in a fridge so I have temperature control.
    Thanks for your guidance

    Yes, 67*F is fine so the yeast can eat the sugar in the fruit...what kind of fruit(s) are we talking about here?
