I'm making some Mince Meat for Xmas - my method says to put it in sterilised jars. Do you think a good wash and a good spray of Star San will do it? If it's good enough for beer, it's good enough for mince, no?

Hi!
I'm not sure! StarSan is a sanitiser, but it doesn't sterilise.
A good way to sterilize glass containers, including beer bottles, is to put them on a baking tray in a cold oven, switch the oven on at 120ðC, keep them at that temperature for about 20 minutes then switch off and leave the containers to cool totally.

id dishwasher the jars - rinse and oven them. starsan when used as instructed does not harm yeast. the jar lids don't go in the oven but are starsan'd.
so far only 1 bottle in about 1700 has given me a problem and even that may have been because of overpriming.

Just for the future...in the way distant past, we would put them in the oven as described above, and it worked fine for the womens institute
Sprayed some old'ish (but still do-able) fresh ginger that was a touch mouldy with my starsan spray.
Next day it looked like new:whistle: (Ergo; not yeast based infection!!!)
