I am wondering about the possibility of contamination from cold brewed coffee added to secondary in a stout or porter recipe. I would assume it is common practice to preboil the water used for the coffee, but what about the beans themselves? If nothing else they would be exposed to my grinder which is far from antiseptic. My other thought would simply be a vodka tincture. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
