Kits reported that the optimal fermentation temperature for [https://www.deuxkanadierbraeu.com/post/escarpment-laerdal-optimum-temperature Escarpment Labs Laerdal kveik is 30°C], which is also the temperature that Dagfinn Wendelbo (the original owner) traditionally pitches this yeast at <ref>[https://www.garshol.priv.no/download/farmhouse/kveik.html#kv6 Farmhouse yeast registry; FY #6 Lærdal.

[https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.26.453768v1 Foster et al. (2021)] published similar findings for 6 strains of kveik. All 6 strains tested (two Hornindal strains, one Laerdal strain, one Ebbegarden strain, one Granvin strain, and one Sigmund Voss strain) attenuated efficiently between 22 and 40°C. With the exception of Hornindal2, Ebbegarden, and Leardal strains, the other three kveik strains also performed well at 42°C. In comparison, none of the control strains (Cal ale, Vermont, Kolsch, and "St. Lucifer" from Escarpment Labs) attenuated well at 42°C. Out of the control strains, only the "St. Lucifer" from Escarpment Labs was able to attenuate at 40°C. This demonstrates kveiks' unique properties of being thermotolerant. The kveik strains were also generally able to ferment at lower temperatures. While most kveik strains attenuated similar to the Vermont and "St. Lucifer" controls at 15°C, Hornindal1 and Laerdal completed fermentations similar to the Kölsch and Cali strains. In addition, Hornindal1 completed a 12°C fermentation within 10 days. Overall, the kveik strains had a shorter lag phase and faster fermentation rates over a wide range of temperatures between 15-42°C <ref name="Foster_2021">[https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.26.453768v1 Kveik brewing yeasts demonstrate wide flexibility in beer fermentation temperature and flavour metabolite production and exhibit enhanced trehalose accumulation.
