Hi,
I'm new to home brewing and have a question about primary fermentation. I am curious to know how many bubbles per minute would be considered an over active fermentation. I put my 5.5 gallon wort into a 6.5 gallon bucket past night. I had a 1.066 starting gravity and used dry Nottingham ale yeast. The ambient air temperature is 68 degrees F. I am using a three piece airlock and am seeing about 50-60 bubbles a minute. Should I be worried about clogging the airlock and switch to a blow off hose?
Thanks
