I have a large carboy. I got it used, but I think it's 7.5 gallons. I've never had anything come even close to blowing off in this thing. Until tonight.
I made a Dubbel yesterday with WY3655, the VSS Belgian Schelde (LHBS didn't have WY1762 Rochefort). Pitched a swollen smack pack, no starter. This morning it was rolling along. Now it's overwhelmed the airlock! I rigged up a quickie blowoff, but I'm shocked!
Anyway gotta love a vigorous ferment.
