Hi all been some time, but Ive been lurking in the background reading all the info etc.
I have made many ciders and plenty of beers, mainly kit beers with small add in's.
However I have come across my first problem brewing, I put on a coopers dark ale with 1kg dextrose, no add ins just wanted something simple and quick and have never tried the dark ales. Anyway it started bubbling like mad which I thought was cool but then it kept blowing / bubbling the water out of the air lock a few times...I just kept adding water?? Anyone know the verdict with this one? Is the brew totalled???

Cheers

All is good.

Relax, don't worry, have a homebrew.

Cheers...thanx.

You're not a real brewer unless you've had a brew climb out of the fermenter, spill out of the brewing fridge, and onto the floor.

Once you clean that lot up, you'll be reminded ever after to use a blow off tube with dark beers and wheat beers.

As Greg said, you'll be fine. Some of my best brews have done the escape act like yours.

hell !!! glad i read this one

Cool, cool thanx guys. Extremely glad to read the replies. Me thinks I'II have to look into this blow off tube! Never knew it could happen with darks and wheat beers...Cheers
