I just spoke to someone who said that after they boil the wort they put the lid on and let it sit overnight. They then pitch the yeast in the morning after the wort is at room temperature. I am wondering if anyone else has done this and if so, has it worked? It seems reasonable to me that if I put the lid on after it has boiled for an hour, it should stay bacteria free overnight. I have a small baby and so if I could be finished making beer in under a couple of hours and just pitch in the morning it would be a bit more convenient. Any advice?
