This weekend, I'm hoping fermentation will be done on my American Red, and I'll be able to start a Belgian wit. I recollect at some point, reading that this type has a tendency to have larger than normal krausen. I use a 6 gallon carboy for fermentation, and I have both types of airlocks, the 3 piece ones, and a wiggly shaped one with 2 little chambers(I use only the most precise technical terms). Since I ferment in my fish tank cabinet (steady temperature, dark, cat leaves it alone), I'd much prefer not to have any blowouts. Am I likely to need a blow-off tube? If I will, I'd much prefer to pick up the stuff I need to make one before I need it! If it matters any, it's an extract kit, and I'm using Wyeast #3944 (belgian wit).
Thanks!
