Hey everyone,
So we are brewing our second beer and we accidentally dropped in an un-sanitized thermometer into 100 degree water while it was cooling. This is the water that we will use to fill up the carboy to the shoulder after the wort goes in. Should we:
A) Not worry about it
B) Boil more tap water to use instead
C) add warm tapwater (not boiled)
your advice is appreciated, the last thing we want to do is taint the beer when we can prevent it. The thermemoter was clean, just not sanitzed!
Thanks!
