Maybe someone can shed some light on my deliema. I am using a 6 gal better bottle with 5 gal of 1068 beer, fermenting with 2 packs of US 05 with an air lock. Well second day of fermentation airlock blew off with krausen all over my desk. Cleaned up and replaced with blow off hose with continued vigorous fermentation. Five days into fetmentation and it has slowed, but krausen is still in the neck of the bottle. What should i expect? Is it a loss? I plan on checking gravity tomorrow and consider transferring to a secondary. Any thoughts?
Temperature in house was at 68°F. After explosion put in garage in temperature controlled converted fridge. Fermentation kept temp between 63-67°F.
