Hi guys going to be doing my first wash and the yeast I have got is prestige wheat vodka yeast. I can't see what temperature to pitch it. Anyone know for this yeast ?

Vodka is mostly neutral so I'd guess keep the temperature fairly low to avoid excessive phenol production, a quick google would indicate 18-21°. Personally, I'm an advocate for slightly lower fermentation temperature so I'd agree with the range given there. I'd probably pitch at around 25° then let it run its course in my brew cupboard, which holds a steadyish 20°C

@ Alien: 25-28C deg. Don't let it get over 30C. NB: Fermentation will generate an increase in heat. Keep an eye on it.

+1 latest thinking is let the yeast rise from pitch temp. No fall. Ie best to pitch few degrees cooler and then raise to ferment temp.
