I had a feeling when I checked my RIS this morning that it was going to go well beyond the headspace in the 6.5 carboy.. So why didn't I do something about it then?
Just came home with an airlock full of foam/wort. I grabbed my hose and stopper for the blow off and the second I touched the stopper in the carboy.. *WHOOSH*
The airlock missed me by about half an inch and I got a face/neck/shoulder/chest/arms-full of krausen. There's even some dripping from the rafters of the basement.. :rockin:
Use a blow-off.
