Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and this is my first post so please bear with me.
Last week i kegged a 15gal batch of neipa, a recipe that i have brewed several times and love playing around with. this time everything went well as far as gravity readings and temperature. after kegging i noticed an slight off flavor which after going over everything and replaying my brewday in my mind i think the flavor is due to me forgetting to rinse my kettles after running pbw through after my previous brewday and therefore the cleaner was left in the kettles for this brew. stupid mistake and everything else about the beer is good and the batch isnt ruined. my question is i have harvested yeast from this batch and i know my fermenter was clean and sanitized and all. will that yeast have been compromised from my mistake or am i ok to use for my next batch?
