First Hefeweizen attempt - a simple extract recipe cooled to ~68F before pitching the yeast slurry from a 3Liter starter of WLP300. Activity took within 8 hours and is fermenting away like a "normal" ale yeast 24h later.
I expected, however, that I would need a blowoff tube as I had read this yeast can be quite crazy, but there is maybe just 1.5" of krausen and lots of actiivty in the wort itself. Should I be concerned that my fermentation is not going extremely crazy for this strain?
