Pushed my cube too far?

[hathro]

So the wort seems fine however the cube is a little worse for wear. I can't pop it back into shape.

At this stage, do I keep it and accept it will hold a smaller volume or ditch it? I'm inclined to keep it but I'm not sure of the cube's integrity now.

Anyone been in this situation?

Fill it with hot water.

I like wolfmans idea however hot wort would do the same.
Brew another beer damn it!! It's your duty to return that cube to normal shape.

Edit. Fixed autocorrect

Boiling water and a tablespoon of perc, seal, shake (use caution)

I push mine in like that every time I fill it. (25 litre cube, 23 litres of wort). +1 to what Yob said.

it'll pop when you clean it or fill with hot wort again

I love how the answer to everything is "BREW MORE BEER"!

I agree, it is my duty.

mix some vinegar and bicarb soda in the cube, put lid on and stand back

Mine look like that.
I would think its still the same volume, just resting in a different pozzish.

Spose cubes don't need to look pretty to hold wort.

All the same, I like the idea of getting it back to shape with hot wort !
