Alright. I was brewing my first batch today, Irish Red Ale. I used my PBW as my cleaner and soaked everything for a couple hours. After that drained the water and mixed a new batch with my sanitizer. While cleaning out the foam all the time I continued to dump the spoon back into the sanitizing solution/water and make sure nothing that touched the wort except after it had been in the sanitizing solution.
I have since put the wort in the fermentator and placed it in my dark, cool place. Once I was beginning to clean up everything afterwards I noticed that my "sanitizing solution" wasn't mixed correctly, I mixed it too light. My fear is that my sanitizing solution I was dipping the spoon into was basically a little bit of sanitizer and water.
Do you guys think I am should abandon the operation, or is the best thing to live it out and see if everything turns out?
Thanks for the help.
