I have made this beer and put it in a primary with a blow off tube and it has been 36 hours. I is still bubbling but the Krussen has gone down and doesn't look like it is threatening to over flow anymore. The blow off was violent and some wort got into the blow off contatiner which I think is normal. I used a starter yeast of 1300ML and pitched it 3 times (so 3 cups of DME).
My question is should a beer with this high of starting OG still be violently blowing off into the blow off container? Was my yeast not able to handle it? Should I add another pack of yeast? and if so how do I add it?
the yeast will die of osmotic shock before even getting a foothold in a solution of that gravity. (did this happen)
Thank you for your time!
