So I'm crash cooling a heffe the other day in my frig. Move the carboy in with three piece airlock attached. I checked on it later that night and the change in temp had drained some of the liquid/starsan out. No problem it happens I think to myself. Well this thing has continued to suck one full airlock everyday even after the temp has been established. Yes I tried a different airlock as well. I was ok with a little starsan in the beer at first but then got concerned so I boiled some water and put in the airlock. What gives? Is this heffe thirsty. I can release the pressure by moving the airlock but after 3 days its still doing it? Frig is 38 degrees and beer was coming in at 68 degrees. I'm more worried about nasty stuff/infection now as the airlock runs dry.
