Subject: Ideal temps. 

Greetings mead-makers,          

I am just starting to make meads, and would like more information on what is 
considered the 'ideal' temperature to ferment at.  Is it better to 'lager' a  
mead, or is somewhere around the standard room temp. better?   
I've also read/heard about using various strains of yeast, and would like some 
feedback as to which types produce the best results for (subjectively of course) 
a 'standard' honey mead.  Champagne, wine, ale, lager, other?    

Thanks in advance for any info.  Replys may be directed to the digest, or
