I may have racked my beer on top of some Star San solution. If so, it was a little bit that I had intended to slosh around right before racking. I didn't get an exact gravity reading, as it was roughly around what I was looking for at 1.011 or 1.012 area, but now it is 1.010. It was just under 5 gallons of beer, but it looked like more than 5 when done, so I'm almost certain I racked it on about 1/4 gallon of solution.

Do I toss it?
 
I have never drank Starsan in large quantities, but some say it is good.

I love the Avatar though. Missed the Syracuse show last September.
 
I've heard starsan foam is ok and even breaks down into a yeast nutrient (someone correct me if I'm wrong), I'm not so sure about 1/4 of a gallon though.
 
Hell no! Starsan is safe to drink when properly diluted, you probably won't even notice the difference. Drink away.

it almost doesn't make sense to me why it's one of the best sanitisers :drunk:
