Hello,
This may sound like a weird question, but does the boil really sanitize everything that may have been on your grain?
For example, I dropped about a pound of uncrushed grain on the dirty floor of my brew shop, swept it up, and put it back with the other grain to be crushed thinking that the boil would kill anything
I then was thinking that when people do sour mashes, the boil doesn't kill that bacteria.
Would the boil kill anything that the grain picked up on floor. Thanks
