Last night I started a batch of Apfelwein as my first try at this.
All seemed good, woke up this morning to good action in the carboy, stuff is going on. Woohoo right!!
I had a feeling I didn't do something right though with sanitizing. So I re-read the directions and well I didn't do it right. I was supposed to just dump the water/sanitizer out and let air dry. Well I dumped it out and rinsed it, remembering a different part of the instructions. I rinsed it out with chlorinated tap water. Am I doomed? Should I just start fresh or should it more than likely be ok?
I know there is no way of knowing until 4 or 5 weeks down the road….
Just asking based off of experience if I should dump this batch and start a new one!!
