Sorry guys I have never brewed a beer in my life and would really like my first batch to turn out adequate so I have lots of questions
I watched a ton of videos and very few acknowledged blow off. Perhaps this is just a problem certain recipes/setup's have? Anyways Not sure which recipe I plan to brew but I will be using a 6.5 gallon plastic bucket for a 5 gallon batch of beer and my brewing kit comes with a drilled hole and rubber stopper for the airlock but nothing for blow off, I wasn't sure if it was necessary with this size bucket.
Here is the kit I have purchased for reference...
