Finishing Hops

[vinper]

Well i didn't see that the hops were already mixed with the malt.. So I mistakenly added the finishing hops at the begining of the 1hr boil.. How will this mess my beer up? After 2 hrs in car boy bubbling away, after 6 hrs it's foaming out like a volcano, had to take off airlock.

The hops have nothing to do with the fermentation. They are there for flavor and aroma only. You have a vigorous fermentation going. You need to get some kind of airlock back on there, or a blowoff tube.

I bet your beer will turn out just fine. All you can do now is let it go to the end, and try it. Who knows... might be the best brew you have ever done.
