HELP PLEASE
I have a major problem, I just unscrewed the lid of the amber ale I was going to rack to secondary, and it is infected. Smells like vinegar and has a couple of blobs of mould on the surface.
The problem is, I am in the middle of a brew (starting boil now) and I now have no yeast cake to pitch onto, and no yeast in the fridge.
What should I do? After the chill, if I put it in a sanitized fermenter will it be OK with no yeast till tomorrow after work?

John Palmer did a bit of testing on this, making beers with s**tloads of starsan foam in the carboy and keg, he found that it makes absolutely no difference to the finished product.

I forgot to take the starsan out of one of my kegs before I racked to it, it hade about 1L of the good stuff in it, couldnt taste it in it and if anything its one of my better beers. So yeah Starsan is a good adjucnt.

Where do you guys source your Starsan from??
Brewers coop or is there somewhere else you can get it?

Star San is no longer at Brewers Coop! Apparently their distributor stopped bring it in. GAR!!! Citrox for me.

This is very sad. I love StarSan. Time to grovel to Joseph to see if he can pick up a distributorship...

Yeah I was talking to the brewers coop guys, and they were saying they were trying to contact StarSan about being a distributor, and they just never replied. Rubbish.
Yeh next time I order stuff from Liberty I think I'll have to get some Iodophor I guess.

Have a look at http://craftbrewer.com.au/shop/default.asp?CID=104
Craftbrewer is the Oceanea distributor of 5Star products. They are presently out of all StarSan, but apparently there is a shipping container which is 3-4 weeks from being landed in Australia that will have lots of the stuff in various sized containers.
