Im getting ready to press 18 bushels of apples. This year chose to sanitize my containers with Star San. One ounce per 5 gallons and dont rinse it says.

The problem is foam is still in the containers 24 hours later, albeit the foam is much less. Will this foam contaminate the juice from a flavor standpoint and will it effect fermentation?



UPDATE: I should have just called the 800 number on the bottle before posting as I just did. ANSWER: The company says the foam will NOT cause any problems.....in fact their motto is "Don't fear the foam."
 
Don't fear the foam. You could probably google that exact phrase and turn up a million threads on this topic with the same outcome. Don't fear the foam.
