Ok so I brewed a tripple the other day and during the fermentation process it overflowed out of the vacuum seal. Now the seal wasn't broken but it domed the lid on my 6 gallon. So I've heard mixed reviews. Some brew buds say it's ok and this is normal with tripples and others say it was over yeasted. Any ideas? Thanks much. Here's a pic of the fermenter for reference.

Over-yeasted? That's a new one :D

You're fine. You had a vigorous fermentation and had some blow off. Remove the airlock, clean it, resanitize, and put it back in place. :mug:

(also, this probably shouldn't be in the announcements section of the forum)
