I was attempting my first double brew day. All was going very well until my full batch (I did a full batch and a half batch) boiled over. It really wasn't that big of a deal since it was in the garage and not on the stove, but I panicked. I turned down the heat real quick but still felt the need to stir a bit to settle the wort down. What did I do? I grabbed my mash paddle. Would have been ok if I had rinsed it off after using it. Yup, I plunged the paddle into the wort while the paddle still had some grains/husks on it from stirring the mash. sigh. I decided to continue with the process, but now I'm wondering if I wasted my time, hops, and yeast.
Is this gonna be one nasty beer?
