So I woke up this morning to a surprise that I never thought I would experience. When I was walking across the living room I noticed something on the floor. I turn on the lights to see my airlock in the middle of the room with crap all over it, then it hit me...
I go to the carboy to notice that the airlock blew off (Literally) and it foamed up everywhere. Not to mention that my white wall was now orange/brown. After swearing a little, the SWMBO wants to know what the problem is. So quicker then anything I know, I say I hit my foot and cleaned the wall, knowing if she sees it, out goes the beer brewing.
So I clean up, put on my blowoff tube and throw it into a 5gal bucket and go off to work. Stop home for lunch and to clean up the rest of my junk to notice the blowoff tube was filled with foam and overflowed the bucket. GREAT!!
So I clean up AGAIN, redo the blowoff and go clean the airlock in hopes of putting it back on in a day or two, to notice that the plastic cap actually broke when it blew off...
