Dry Hopping Question

[DogFlynnHead]

Boiled my hop bag. Sanitized my hands. Added hops to bag and tied in a knot. My carboy opening was too small to fit the hop bag through it easily so i kept poking it down until i finally got it into the carboy. My question is do you think there is a chance I've contaminated the brew through this process? The bag kind of bulged and hit areas on the mouth of the carboy i wasn't intending. What do you think? BTW its an American Pale Wheat Ale.

No, I think the beer will be fine.

That's why I don't use hops bags, though. You think it was hard getting it in there, wait until you get ready to take it out!

Chances are pretty slim, so I wouldn't worry.

But for future reference, this is where it can come in handy to keep some sanitizer in a spray bottle. This way you can quickly and easily spray down areas like the top of your carboy, etc.
