Last week I did a brew. During the process I emptied the finished beer from my fermenter into a keg and some bottles so I could use the bin for the days brew. I took a FG of the finished beer tipped it out and then took a OG of the wort just made.
How I get my wort for my OG is from my trub left in my kettle. I get four glasses out of the cupboard and tip the trub into them and let it settle and decant the clear wort off into the test jar. None of which were sanitised.
I looked at the wort sample the next day to find that it was fementing. There was residual yeast left from the FG sample which took. I placed a film of glad wrap over it and let it finish fermenting and just took a sip to find a nice beer with no infection to be tasted. Makes me think that infections are more likely to be caused from poor cleaning rather than poor sanitzing.
