I brewed a wit last week. Wanted to do another batch, and didn't have another yeast pack, so I boiled the kettle, cooled it, sent batch 1 to secondary, and threw the 2nd batch in the primary with the trub from the 1st.
90 min later it is running over the 6 gal better bottle, and the air lock can't really keep up with the krausen. Yikes! I've had a vigorous start to fermentation before, but never like this! It may be done in primary in 24 hrs at this rate....
It'll all work out in the end. Batch 1 in secondary is really ready to bottle anyway. I just put it in secondary to clarify further and bottle at a convenient time.
Anyone else had ferm bombs? any notable side effects?
