I brewed a Brew Canada Pilsner beer kit and pitched the yeast (Coopers dry yeast packet) almost exactly 24 hours ago. 12 hours later it was already bubbling. OG is supposed to be between 1.03-1.04, it's 1.04.
It's letting out a constant gas pressure out of the tiny holes in the airlock lid and it looks like yeasty beer in the airlock itself now. Could this get clogged and end up going everywhere like I've read about, or should I leave it and not risk infection?
First time using a carboy, I've always used a 30L pail and never had to worry about this before . Did I fill it up too high or is this standard? This is about my 6th brew and I wanted to try out a glass carboy before I moved on to all grain, for some odd reason when I switch to all grain I want to use glass instead of plastic and let it ferment for longer periods of time (24 years old and a batch of beer usually gets bottled within 3 weeks and drank a couple later lol)
Any and all advice appreciated.
