Hi,
I hope I didn't ruin my brew. This is my first brew and I've been really careful but this got me. When I was done with my first fermentation before going into the carboy, i tried to lift up the bucket and some of the airlock water got in.
Well, i didn't learn.... 3 weeks later (today), i went to pull out my beer to start bottling it, and i went to lift the carboy and the airlock sucked into the beer a second time! ARRRR!!!! But, the beer did smell good!
Fortunately, the water from the tap that I used in the airlock smells like it's from a swimming pool... which after sitting in the airlock for 3 weeks probably lost almost all it's free chlorine.
So, what do you think? Will this ruin my beer?
