I am making a molasses Ginger Porter. Here is my recipe:

OG 1.065

10.50 lbs American two row Pale
00.75 lbs Black Patent
00.60 lbs Roasted Barley
00.50 lbs Chocolate
00.25 lbs Americak Crystal 60
00.40 lbs Molasses 15 min
3 oz Crystallized Ginger at 5 min

1.00 oz Palisades - 60 min
0.75 oz Willamette - 20 min

So I had a huge brain fart and I did 2 things wrong. 1. I didn't dice the ginger extremely fine, I should have and the recipe called for it. 2. I added it at 2 min into the boil and not 5.

My question is form your guys experience will I even be able to taste it? Should I leave it alone, or could I rack ginger in the last week of the primary. If I rack it in the last week, how do I sanitize it?
Thanks, JC
