You could,but steps would need to be taken to keep nasties out till then.
Wouldn't you kill the nasties when you do the boil?
My concern would be the the wort somehow "goes stale" of "flat" in some manner I don't know anything about. Or that some microbes would start fermenting or interacting with the pre-wort in ways I do not want. I don't know anything about that eiither. But then I'd presume, if I didn't have reason to believe otherwise, that neither of these are likely to be a serious concern. But I have absolutely no idea.
Oh... duh.Some organisms produce toxins in the course of their activities - eating, reproducing, etc. You can kill the organisms but the toxins stay behind.
Well, .... I guess if organisims get in and mess it up, that counts a type of "spoiling" I guess. Maybe not in the strict biological sense but in terms of "oh ****, my wort is ruined"...It won't go stale, flat, or otherwise spoil.
There can be a lag between lautering and boiling but I wouldn't want it to be any more than 12 hours or so.
why would you want to halt your conversion it seems like everyone is always raving about higher conversion?
