Argh! Forgot to star san my fermenter!!

Post by floydmeddler » Sat Jul 16, 2011 4:10 pm

Just finished brewing and realised I didn't sanitise my fermenter. I did, however, swirl 3L of boiling water around in there for around 10-15mins. The fermenter was so hot I couldn't touch it.

I'm hoping this will have done the trick!! :(

Haha. That would be nice actually! I was a bit of a dumbass with this one today actually. I also forgot to add the flavouring hops! Will have to dry hop them in a few weeks...
