Too much Star San

[Phlyborn]

So today I brewed 4.5 gallons of brown ale. Everything went well until I poured the wort into my fermentation bucket. As I did that I noticed some left over star san in the bottom but, it was to late I had already started pouring and went ahead emptying the kettle. It was not a lot but was liquid form as allowed to foam. I sprayed the walls of the bucket so it would be sanitized and put the lid on till I was ready. So did I ruin the batch or is there no need to worry?

Don't fear the foam!

Your brew will turn out great. Enjoy.

I had a cream ale, one of the lightest, hardest to hide off flavors in beers, that sucked back 2 CUPS of Starsan back into the fermentor when I cold crashed it. Won our monthly club competition.
Don't worry about it.

Nice, thanks for the reassurance.

Yeast will actually use it as a nutrient. One its diluted, it doesn't sanitize anymore.

That's interesting, I haven't heard that before.
