Probably been posted `100 times but here goes.
Does the likelihood of contamination go down as the wort ages?
I notice people here opening there buckets and looking inside yet during beginning fermentation you don;t want to open the bucket for any reason.
Also, racking to secondary carboy. After the primary fermentation is done is it unlikely to pick up something while racking?
How is it you can open your bucket and not get your beer sick?
I'm considering not racking to secondary because last time I got that lacto bacteria. I am wondering if that is because I racket to soon.
