Ahem…. I may not be using so much of that stuff for brewing again. I have checked the taste and temperature’s and no thing seems amiss apart from the yeast head pouring out of the airlock. As long as bubbles are coming out there’s nothing getting in. I’ll keep a close eye on it. Well funny though. It floored me laughing we i saw it
Hopefully the beer gods are looking down on me.
On a lighter note the Bavarian lager/bier has turned out stunning… It tastes like a cross between Warsteiner and Ayergerbrau Pills. Me and the missis love the results. This will be deffinately brewed again. It came from a Coopers Bavarian beer kit if you fance having a pop at it

Sorry to see the mess – hopefully no harm will have been done. Interested to hear about the lager – I will be doing a lager in the near future – might be an option for me then…

I dont think there will be any harm as the foam pouring out of the airlock is preventing any contaminents getting in. On the other hand if the yeast is producing this much Co2 then how much alcohol is it also producing. Am i brewing up rocket fuel here. I may take a hydrometer reading tonight to see how it’s going.
The lager is from the Coopers Bavarian Beer kit. I made it with 24 litres of bottled water and used muntons beer enhancer instead of sugar. It ferments at a cool temperature so no heating was required. I bottled the beer first then added the priming sugar. I used light spray malt for this then whacked them all in the airing cupboard for 7 days. After the airing cubboard i left them a week in a cool place to condition. They turned out bloody brilliant. Going to get another one of these kits in a few weeks. The missis loves the lager/beer

Cool, cheers for the info. Might be the lager I try then.
