I boiled my priming sugar a bit late and due to having to get to work didnt have time to let it fully get under 80 degrees. I dumped it into the bottling bucket about 20 minutes before adding beer. I don't know what the temp was but would guess around 100-110 if I had to guess.
Obviously, once a good amount of beer mixed in it would cool it rather quickly and not be much an issue. However, what effects if any besides shocking the yeast in the first few 100 cc's of beer to hit the hot mixture? I don't think it was hot enough to lyse the yeast and doubt if it did it would create off flavors to any noticeable extent. Anything I might be missing?
