I cold crashed and the blow off tube sucked a gallon of sanitizer into my fermenter.. Can it be saved? What do I do???:mad
Here's what you do:
Write yourself a note that says, "Don't leave the blow-off tube in the fermenter when cold crashing!"
There is no way I'd drink that now...

Reason 83 I don't cold crash.
Because you can't remember to disconnect the blow-off tube??
Reason 83 I don't cold crash.
Because even if you do, air gets sucked in one way or another.
Is reason #1 because you can't?
Well, this is true. I usually use an S lock in this instance, but I have been known to be paranoid enough to use an antibacterial filter sometimes as well. It lets air in, but nothing nasty can get through.
But I usually just don't worry about it. I suppose there could be a method of taking up CO2 instead of air if one were to ponder it a while. Maybe a balloon placed over the fermenter at the end of primary or something.
No, it is because I percieve no real benefit.
Yeah, the fridge or keezer air is the LAST thing I want touching my beer. The microbial filter sounds interesting!

Neither did I until I tried gelatin.
Just because you don't perceive something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. (Funny, sounds like a line I use with my atheist friends. To be clear: I am NOT lumping you in to that group, just hyperbole to show silliness of argument)
Sure, and simply wanting and/or believing something to be true doesn't make it so.
