I screwed up my brew in one of the dumbest ways possible this weekend.
I took the boiled wort down to my utility sink and started running cold water out of the faucet for the ice bath. While waiting for for the sink to fill, I turned away for about 5-10 seconds to show a friend my kegerator. When I turned back to the sink, the pot was laying on its side in the water
I guess it had started floating and somehow managed to flip over, even though the sink is barely wide enough for the height of the pot. Some of the wort flowed into the sink, and I'm sure some of the sink water made it into the pot. Unbelievable..
Do you think my beer is ruined? It's fermenting, but I'm ready to be disappointed once it's kegged.
