So i had some leftover hops and some leftover DME. I decided to boil the DME and hops in 1 gallon of tap water for about 15-20 minutes and after it cooled poured all contents (with break and hops) into a not sanitized 1 plastic water jug. I pitched the decanted wort from a lager yeast starter and left it uncovered in my garage where there are major temp swings. The point was to whip up a mini batch doing everything WRONG to see how it comes out.
It's fermenting next to a lager which i brewed using all proper procedures.
I took a sample today and guess what??? TASTES GREAT!!!!
I'm wondering how this can be if i purposely did everything wrong to just to see how poorly brewed beer tastes like next to batch of good homebrew. maybe off flavors haven't developed?
