So, I ramped up tonight and started a 5 gallon batch of welches. Sanitized everything thoroughly, took my time, pitched 5 campden tabs and right before I got ready to move the bucket to it's resting spot my wife, in her infinite wisdom, picked up a small rug right beside the bucket and whipped it in the air. Apparently she wanted me to place the bucket on the rug to move it across the wood flooring. Anyway, I grabbed a strainer as quick as I could and ran across the surface of the must. I think I got most of what managed to settle on the surface but I'm sure there's still some gunk in there. I also wiped down the exposed inner sides of the bucket with a rag soaked in SO2 solution. Is this ruined from the get go? I'm assuming it will be ok since I just barely added the campden tabs right before this happened. Anything that fell in should get sterilized..... right?? Should I add more campden tabs? Am I being too paranoid?
