Munkee,
I am truely loving it,
Let me know when it stops being fun eh?
To answer the question, I like keeping mine below 30 but have had a few warm ones. Haven't noticed any big changes as long as the beer is chilled after. The biggest risk is blowing up the bottles as you can't dissolve as much CO2 into warm beer as cold so the pressure will increase in the headspace
and eremasi, don't mind munkee, he is just having some fun, bit like poking sticks at a rabid wolverine
