I've got a bunch of mason jars that have been used to pickle radishes... I want to reuse them to hold washed yeast. If I sanitize them in starsan and boil them will this kill any beasties that might contaminate my yeast, or should I just get new mason jars for the yeast?
Reusing pickle jars for saving yeast. Bad idea?

Sure. I'd definitely boil the crap out of them and scrub them out really good with a rag though.

Agreed, but I'd get new lids.
