Maybe this can serve as a warning to others.
Well, I mixed up a big bucket of No Rinse sanitizer using HOT water. Did it right before I finished up the boil so it had cooled down some but it was still very warm.
For some reason, I decided to sanitize the outside of my Activator pack. I usually just do a quick dunk in the sanitizer as I'm not too worried but today I tossed it in the bucket and walked away. Came back like 20 minutes later, picked it up and felt how hot the pack was! I pitched it into the wort right away (talk about temperature shock) and have been hoping for the best.
Brew is slowly bubbling today though about 15 hours after pitching. Hope all goes well but only time will tell.
