Stupid mistake - I got in a hurry and pitched too hot (didn't read the thermometer properly), and I got a HUGE blowout over the first 24-36 hours - way more than normal. It literally pushed the airlock out of the carboy twice. Yeast was Wyeast Weihenstephan 3068, which has done well for me with this recipe in the past. I'm assuming that this totally screwed up the yeast.....but how bad is it likely to be?
Here's my question: what is the likelihood that this will clear itself up in secondary? Do I just give up, dump it and start over, or is it worth going ahead and kegging it to see if it can come back to life and be reasonably drinkable?
