Hey guys, I have posted on here in the past and you guys have been really helpful. I am currently brewing a Russian Imperial Stout but am having some problems. I brewed the beer up last Friday at my fathers camp because it has a gas stove, and all went well. Since it was at camp, I was going to check it the following day, but was unable to until a day after that. When I got there, I noticed that just the plastic lid was covered in beer, and the lock and lid were caked in yeast. I quickly sanitized the lid and lock and covered the fermentor and filled my lock with water. Almost instantly I noticed a few bubbles start to come up and I figured that I saved the batch. But my father checked it today (5 days from cooking it up), and did not see any bubbles coming up the air lock. Is there anything I can do to save my batch of beer. I know I should have used a blow off tube, but was told that you don't need to with a plastic fermentor. Any help from an expert is much appreciated. Thanks, Mike
