Anyone have anything to say about airlock water accidentally getting into your primary or secondary?
I filled my airlock about two-thirds full when sealing up my primary, and a couple days later took a look at it....i happened to press on the lid which caused a pressure spike inside the system and I'm pretty sure some of the water got sucked into the wort. This was filtered tap water and the airlock was sanitized.
Also, I just had the same thing happen when tonight I tranferred it to secondary. I saw some water enter the carboy, but, this time I happened to use boiling water as the water lock...so there should be no issue here.
