Here is the worst case scenario for a sanitation issue. A couple weeks ago I saved a couple bombers of wort to make a yeast starter with. Last night i was opening the second one my typical way.( i pop the tops with a lighter and my fist gripped around the cap) When suddenly BOOM, an explosion of white and brown foam and blood everywhere in my kitchen. I quickly gripped my thumb tightly and asked the SWMBO for a rag. I took a look when i put the rag on and I knew I was getting some stitches. The bottle did NOT break. It was the cap they gave me 10 stitches and a cut tendon last night. I'll post a pic shortly, but I guess this one of those " be careful" threads.
