While in the process of cooling wort after a 60 min boil, an ice cube fell into the hot wort and melted before being able to be retrieved. Could this single ice cube ruin my batch of beer and cause a contamination?
 
i'm no expert but i would say your fine. i think there are people on here that put the ice in on purpose
 
no. i used to cool my wort by putting ice cubes in it, i did it 4 times before i build my counterflow chiller and newer had a problem!
