Hey everyone,
Put down a 2can of Coopers lager ( 2 cans + only 1 of yeast supplied, to 23L) last night and this morning it was bubbling happily away. But this arvo when I got home there is masses of foam at the top of fermenter and pushing out through the airlock.
Healthy fermenting is one thing, but I'm worried about air getting back through the airlock, now that the water has been blown out.
It is hot here today, but house is airconditioned to about 24c and I have the fermenter in a big esky with a frozen 2ltr ice block.
Has anyone had this before? And will it affect my beer?
PS. I only used 1 yeast as I read that Bribie G had problems with his airlock using both yeasts.
Hope someone can help, Thanks TF
