I am brewing my 4th batch of beer and on my last brew the airlock overflowed and got all gunked up so this time i decided to try using a blow off tube. What i did based on a posters recommendation was took my siphon tube and stuck it in the rubber gomet in my bucket top and the other end in a small pale of water. I have yet to see any bubbling or indication of fermentation in the bucket. Was this a good idea to try or should i put my air lock? Also is there a way i can tell when it starts fermenting i assume i should see some sort of bubbles in the bucket with water in it? Any advice is appreciated Thanks!
