Hi, I just brewed my first batch. I began with making a starter yeast (as suggested by a brewmaster relative) Sunday morning and put it to work last night. Everything went well, but, when I checked on it the this morning, the airlock had blown off and made quite a mess on the floor. The question I have is a contamination one. I put the airlock right back in before thinking while I cleaned up. Two kids in two getting ready for day care. I got smart a little late and sanitized the air lock a few minutes later, but I'm wondering if I've already blown the batch by putting that airlock back in after picking it up off the floor?
