Pretty sure I messed this up but figured I'd check with you guys. I drank four sours within a few nights. I remembered people talking about saving their dregs so I thought it would be a good idea to to just sanitize some foil, leave some beer left in the bottles to keep the yeast/bugs covered, cover them with said foil, and put them in the fridge for use at a later time. Now they've been sitting there for a few weeks and I'm wondering if I can still pitch them in something.
Questions:
1: Is there a chance they're "contaminated" now with bugs I don't want since I didn't have an airtight seal?
2: Is the oxygen exposure they're getting going to cause issues?
3: Is this one of the times I should just go for it (RDWHAHB ) or are my odds too love to just go for it?
After doing some research, I now know how to properly save them but I'm wondering if I can still use these.
Thanks guys!
