I'm brewing a Belgium Abby and the fermentation was going strong all day yesterday, but today when I woke up the airlock was filled with what looked like yeast particles and not fermenting, probably because air could not go through it, so when I attempted to take it off and clean it junk shot in my face and on the walls. I ran it through some hot water and stuck it back on, but is this normal?
(other facts that could attribute: it's 5.35 gallons in a 6 gallon plastic tub, and I pitched the yeast at 78 degrees rather than cooler, this could have affected it more)
