I recently made NB bourbon barrel porter everything went smooth until tonight while transferring to my keg. I usually do not use a secondary fermenter since I have a conical but I needed to put this in a carboy to let it mix with the bourbon and oak, I bought a racking cane and used some tubing I had after a while I noticed that the tube was not completely sealed around the racking can and sucking in air, have I basically aerated my beer while transferring?! After a while the siphon stopped working leaving about a half gallon+ in the carboy. Is the beer in the keg going to be stale by the time its ready? I am drinking whats left in the carboy it is delicious uncarbed! I hope it is not ruined.
