Hi guys,would i have stuffed my brew?
after a good 2 weeks fermenting in corny keg in my temp controlled fridge,i dropped the temps to 1.5 to cold crash fro a few days before filtering into fresh keg,i noticed that the contents of the blowoff bottles had sucked backed into the keg,contained filtered water approx 3oo mL with 5 mL of local brew shop home brew steriliser ??

thanks in advance
pat
 
I've had Starsan solution sucked back into the fermenter from the airlock without any ill effects if this helps you sleep tonight.
 
yeah ill sleep ok lol,normally i take them off when i crash,thanks for the reply,cheers pat
 
Whuch sanitiser and how large is the batch?
 
I forgot to take off the blow off tube a few brews back and had 750mls of starsan solution that went into the beer, didn't even notice it when it we drank it, just lowered the abv a bit.
