Did I screw up?

So i was brewing a double chocolate stout thursday...
forgot to add the cocoa powder.

so i added about a cup of water, and 3 oz of powder. I boiled the mix, and then let it cool down to 80* and then added it to the primary about an hour, maybe two after the yeast had been pitched into the primary.
I shoot it a little to mix it all up.

I'm hoping I didn't just waste all the ingredients and time.

Would this put my brew in jeopardy of some kind of problem?

I'm sure your worried about oxygenating your beer but if primary fermentation has not started you should be alright. I wouldn't worry about it.

yea, that and introduction of something that was unsanitary... I am definitely a stickler for having an extremely sanitary workspace/equipment. It really helps that i'm germaphobic anyways. When I heard that brewing had to be completely sanitary, I thought I had been born for brewing.

I once forgot to add 1# of DME to a batch and did what you did after the fact; the brew turned out fine.
