Hey,

I just installed some 3/8 check valves on my c02 lines. In order to get them onto my 5/16 line I had to boil the hose. Thus, some condensation got into the line. I tries to counteract this by spraying it down with a bit of sanitizer but now there is that in the line too. Is this something that I should worry about as far as it maybe getting infected or funky in there?
 
You should be ok...If you're worried spray some sanitizer in the line and blow it out with CO2 and quickly reconnect.
 
Yeah I did spray sanitizer in there but I have all quick disconnects that are auto shutoff so it's kind of hard to get all the liquid out
