So, about five weeks ago i made some edworts o-fest using yeast from a previous batch of kolsch. I put them into a different fermentation bucket and let the yeast go to town.
Walked in to the bathroom tonight and there was beer coming from my closet. I thought maybe something had happened and it was coming out the top, so i move the bucket. Well, when i moved it i discovered a big hole in the bottom and 5 gallons comes pouring out. I have a nice 8-inch long crack in the bottom.
Anyone ever had this happen? The crack wasn't there three weeks ago when i last moved the bucket. Seems odd that it would just now appear after not having been moved. Could something within the beer have weakened it or something?
