Fermentation Airlock Bubbling Enough?

[Stromboni]

So this is my first time brewing and my beer has been in the primary fermenter for about 48 hours now. This is what the airlock looks like and it looked the same as 24 hours ago when I first started seeing the bubbles. Is this normal? Thanks

If you’ve seen anything then don’t worry. It’ll be fine. Just don’t open it or anything.

If you are smelling then some good work is happening

Awesome! It’s not super strong, can just smell the goodness right by the airlock. Making me excited haha

Be careful... homebrewing leads to airlock sniffing.

Seeing that your using a brew bucket, its fairly common to have a little leak around the seal. First time I experienced this, I thought I screwed up. Turns out its fairly common and that beer was great. Enjoy your first brew!

Looks fine. It will probably get more vigorous in a day or two and then slow down.

I'm not sure what we're supposed to be looking at in a still picture? you should see the little plastic piece in the middle bobbing up and down as fermentation gas escapes. Those little tiny bubbles on the side do not mean anything... Probably just some gas in your airlock water coming out of solution.
