Hi Guys,
I decided to take my beer outside into the snow to try cooling it after the boil. It was snowing out at the time and I put the pot in a nice snowbank. After opening the lid a few times I thought to myself "hmm... It's snowing and I'm getting snow flakes in my beer. This might not be a great idea".
Needless to say, I got the beer down to 120ish degrees, taking the lid on and off multiple times, before bringing it in and sitting it in an ice bath to finish cooling. Do you think the snowflakes that got in my beer is going to create bacteria that'll ruin the beer?
Thanks!
