Hey Everyone,
Newbie question for you all. I had a blowout on my second batch (a kolsch).... I pitched the yeast on Monday night, had good fermentation on Tuesday night, left for a trip on Wednesday morning, got back on Friday evening and found a clogged airlock with some beer on the outside of the lid (thankfully the lid held and there was not a major blowout). I cleaned and sanitized the airlock but now there are no bubbles at all coming out. I was planning on racking this batch on Sunday or Monday.
So my two questions, is the beer ruined after sitting with a blowout for potentially two and a half days (total time I was gone was 60 hours, but when I left everything looked good)? Should I just rack it tomorrow (Saturday)? Thanks!
