Will yeast rise in a cold house?

Asked by deni (23141points) September 29th, 2009

I’m making dough right now for calzones, but my house is pretty chilly and I’ve heard that when dough is rising it should be in a warm place. It’s below 50 degrees outside and I’m bundled up inside as well, is that going to be a problem for my yeast? Will it just not rise as much, or am I simply incorrect and temperature doesn’t have anything to do with it?
