hello all, this is my first post on the forum looks great i'm sure i'll spend lots of time looking around to get some good knowledge but first things first...
i brewed my 3rd homebrew this past sunday. pitched the yeast and put the airlock on... it started bubblin alittle later and when i woke up the next morning it was really going and pretty much all day monday. when i get home from work monday i checked on it and i had beer on my lid and foam throughout my airlock - looks like it was going crazy and the beer got sucked into the airlock... anyway my question is wtf is going on? my first 2 beers didnt have any sort of problem like this... i'm worried if liquid is coming out than bad things are getting in? do i need to be worried? should i take the airlock off and cover the hole long enough to clean the airlock and put new water back in it? i hope it isnt ruined
any info would be appreciated, thanks in advance
