As the title asks, has anyone ever used bourbon in the airlock? I Didn't have any vodka, but I did have a bottle of bourbon. So I used a bit of it. Will it cause my brew any harm if it seeps in?

I can't imagine a couple tablespoons of bourbon can overwhelm 5 gallons of anything

I didn't have any vodka on hand so i filled mine with moonshine... 1 day in the bucket and it seems to have worked fine...

I have soaked hops for dry hopping in bourbon and dumped it all straight into secondary. Worked out well thankfully.
