that sucks!
Brewers here have reported Starsan suck back (through a krausen blow-off tube) in the range from mere cups to several quarts. Many of those have drank it when in the lower suckback volumes, and couldn't tell or found it somewhat diluted. But your mishap is in that higher range....
There's 6 ml of Starsan concentrate in a gallon of standard strength working solution. 50% of those 6 ml is Phosphoric Acid, a component found in soft drinks, and 15% of dodecylbenzenesulphonic acid, basically a detergent/surfactant (like soap). The rest is water.
There will be a noticeable dilution of your beer, 20%, but may still be drinkable. Maybe it's OK to drink a pint of your Starsan beer a day, but do not serve it to others, unless they knew about it and are 300% fine with it.
Alternatively, chuck it, hard lesson learned. |
