Hey folks I brewed a ginger beer last night and the recipe calls for adding an oz into primary then another into secondary. I've never done this before and worry about infection if I don't sanitise it first.
Is this something I need to concern myself with? I've been dry hopping for years without issue of course but ginger isn't hops.
Thinking I may need to peel the ginger then soak in sanitizer (Starsan) for a minute or so? Any past experiences would be greatly appreciated!
Edit - I've read sanitizing is unnecessary so guess I'll just chuck some in but was hoping to hear about others experiences too.
