Hello all, Working on my 1st batch of cider.

1st fermentation then went to 2nd fermentation until co2 stopped.
Rack to carboy to condition, used standard white solid cork.

4 days later cork shot into the air.

I put cork back in the carboy, but suspect it will happen again.
Should I put a airlock back in?

Thanks
 
"Should I put a airlock back in?"
Yes! Its obviously still working a little and can off-gas for a couple of months.
