Cucumbers: what are the recommendations?

A *pump*?!? Now *that's* some serious homebrewing! The directions say to rehydrate using water, yes, but then to gradually add wort to bring the temp towards that of the wort before pitching to avoid temperature shock. Yes, it's a fruity yeast and does give off a bit of diacytel, but that's just part of "her" charm. I ferment on the kitchen counter where the temp stays quite stable, around 70F/21C.
