Question for the pros-
Like the rookies that we are, we cold crashed the beer on Saturday, but left the blowoff tube in and in the star San solution. About 1/2 gallon-ish got sucked into the carboy.

A quick google says we are likely safe to drink it. Flavor will most definitely be off, but apparently safe to consume. Most other forums say drink it unless it's nasty.

How F'd are we? Should we RDWAHAHB? Drink it until we don't like it anymore?

Not an expert but I'd definitely RDWHAHB, it probably won't be that big of a deal.

It is safe to drink, so if it tastes fine go for it. You have to be careful with blow off systems being higher than the level of beer.

It sounds like you can drink star San and it won't harm you.

I wouldn't make a habit of it though

If it tastes fine, drink it.
