Left malt extract in car overnight!

[CinciBearFan]

Oops! Picked up a new kit just yesterday, and somehow left the malt extract in the car overnight. I was half expecting it to have explode d out o its 1/2 gallon jug and oozed all over the carpet, but luckily no!

But question is, with 95 degree temps at 8 pm last night, is this LME no good? (figure 12 hours at an average of 90 degrees prob)

I usually keep it refrigerated till brewing. I plan in brewing tomorrow night. Thinking I should get some fresh LME

The don't ship it cold, who knows what it goes through before you get it.


Brew away!

It probably got a lot hotter than that being shipped in a trailer from the mfg to the brew shop. That type of product isn't hauled in refrigerated trailers

Haha! Bob beat me to it by a few seconds. Hey Bob, 3hrs north of ya.

Mine is in my 115 degree garage and has been for 36 hours. It will pour a lot easier tonight when I use it. they don't ship that stuff temp controlled. Tycho how hot the semi gets

Sugar is a preservative. Nothing can survive in that concentration of it.

You are good. Just brew, drink and be happy.

Don't forget that they make the stuff by heating wort and boiling off the water. I wouldn't store extract at 100F+ for weeks, as it will darken, but a day or two is no problem.

Extract, no problem. Liquid Yeast might be a problem. +1 to "Brew, Drink, be happy".

Thanks all!

The liquid yeast is indeed in the refrigerator!
