After all the issues I faced with this brew, it's good to see that the yeast is happy! This being the first fermentation I've done in glass I was amazed at what went on during the fermentation. I decided to shoot some video of it and post it here.
We are now 3 days into fermentation and it has slowed some, enough that I could finally add an air lock. At the start of fermentation, I knew that it would plug up an airlock due to foam, so I just sanitized a plastic Arnie's Bar cup and used it to cover the top of the fermenter to keep anything from falling into it. I was also sure to put the fermenter in a plastic tub to keep from making a mess on the floor!
