Everything went as planned today, even hit my OG right on the money (1.062). One problem, I had just shy of 6 gal of wort rather than the 5.25 gal I was shooting for. Who cares, more beer for me right? Well, since I have a 6 gal carboy, I decided to use a blowoff hose. Well my idea of a blowoff hose was shoving some 3/8 tubing into the carboy cap, which was clearly not designed for that. 12 hours later and it blew the hose out and creamed all over my floor. Wife is pissed, gotta do something now. So pic below is what I did in a panic. Sawed off 2L bottle masking taped to the top of the carboy sitting in a laundry tub while it continues to spew hate from the bowels of hell. Anybody else do stupid **** like this? Let's hear your stories.
