Hi all,
The other day in the excitement of creating my latest IPA I made a horrible mistake. I had the tin of goo and LME sitting in the sink in fairly hot, but not boiling, water for about 10 minutes to soften them up. However, when I took them out I discovered to my horror that it was the wrong jar of LME! D'oh!!!
So my question is, have I done any damage to the LME by warming it up? Will it still be useable or is it likely to produce off flavours? It's unopened in the standard LHBS plastic jar and is now back sitting in the cupboard safely out of my reaches.
Thanks in advance,
BM
