*diacetyl rest can be done at any time after primary fermentation, just be sure to give it
a few days at the higher temp before you start lagering it in the secondary.

What is the recommended primary time for that particular yeast/recipe? I wouldn't
take it out of the primary fermentation temp until the primary fermentation is well done,
otherwise the higher temps will cause off flavors due to the yeast still actively
consuming the wort's sugars. The directly rest can be done at any time after primary
fermentation, just be sure to give it a few days at the higher temp
