Hi all, I'm a new brewer and new to this forum. I've cruised through the forums a few times and it seems like a great place full of knowledgeable people. I brewed just my second batch last night and I may have made a mistake. When I came home this evening, I checked to see if fermentation had begun on my batch of double IPA and there were no bubbles coming from the airlock. Upon closer inspection, the lid of my bucket was not completely shut. So I immediately click it shut and the bubbles started coming from the airlock immediately. So, give it to me straight. Is my batch ruined?
