How long can I store about 4.5 gallons of wort without pitching any yeast into it. I brewed today and was planning on pitching some washed yeast that was in the fridge for about two weeks I normally make a starter before but I didn't plan ahead and decided to go ahead and pitch the washed yeast straight into the wort. I split the entire yeast cake into only two containers and figured it would be ok because of the amount of the yeast present in the containers and the short amount of time it was in the fridge. So I started brewing then a couple hours later I look at the container and theres a nasty looking bubbly growth on the outside of the container. I obviously had a contamination so I dumped the yeast. Since I already stated brewing ( it was 10pm at this time). I was not able to get a new vile of yeast and will not be able to till Monday morning. I finished brewing then placed the wort into my carboy after cooling with an air lock on it. So my question is how long could I possibly store the wort before I should be worried about contamination?
