I'm brewing a 5 gallon batch of Munich Helles. Should I worry about sun strike if I do a 100 minute boil and immersion chilling outside in full sun? Thanks.
I may be wrong, but I think you can only "skunk" a beer during or after fermentation.
I'm not sure. It's a reaction from the humulone compounds from the hops with certain wavelengths of light, but I don't ever see anything about pre or post fermentation. Someone might know more, but given that many (serious at least) homebrewers brew outside without issue, you may be right.
