it was an all-grain pale ale. it was hot on brew day, and I had trouble chilling it down. only got it down to around 80, so i threw it in the kegerator, and waited until it got to 70 before i pitched. since the liquid was still cooling, i was worried about what might suck back into the carboy, so i put a filter on it. i found my 2nd carboy hood was the wrong size, so i just put foil on that one. pitched the yeast in the morning, and found this when i got home that night. got everything cleaned up, but i have no clue what im going to do about this plywood. any suggestions to try + save it? or shall i just toss it + start fresh?
