secondary fermentation has kicked back up nicely. However, I may have filled the carboy a little too much. Not much headspace left after the cherry puree and new krausen floated back to the top.

I really hope I don't find a huge mess when I get home. I'm gonna be sweating this one out today.

Fermcaps are awesome. Highly recommend them to avoid boilovers.
