This beer was fermenting normally for about 16 hours then foamed heavily. I guess its infected but I don't know how, usual strict precautions were taken. Outgassing like crazy.

I'm thinking maybe the fermenter got a little warm. Heater came on to 68 when it was about 63 before and it went nuts. I'm gonna put it out in the cold for a bit while I rig a blowoff

Just goes to show you, ive been brewing at a medium skill level for ages and leave lots of headspace and never had this happen, but I guess krausening is good
