Best Answer

Yes, I think you can, but it'll taste badly, has brown color and contains alcohol. You can't remove it simply. Maybe diluted hydrogen peroxide is better and easily removed by adding some fresh yeast after complete desinfection (peroxidase activity). Easiest way still is: COOKING the water (10 min)
