Holy beer explosions. ...
barely 10 hours after placing Belgian wit into primary, my blow off was doing it's best impression of Moby Dick. I ended up cleaning beer off the walls and ceiling at 3 A.M.
After cleaning and sanitizing everything, blow off is re installed. BUT.. there is no foam on top of wort but is bubbling every few seconds.
So here are my questions. ..
did I trash 5 gallons of beer?
How big is the chance of contamination?
Can I still leave in primary for 4 weeks and be safe?
Thanks in advance.
