Super Krausen!

I racked the Strong Ale to the secondary last night and this is what I found on the underside of the primary lid - dried krausen. Evidence of the most violent fermentation that I have ever had! Due, I expect, to both the high gravity of the wort (1070) and pitching a large starter (over a cup of yeast) my six inches of headroom in the primary didn't cut it.

There was dried krausen in the blow-off tube as well - thank god I used one! An airlock would have clogged and the pressure would have blown it through the ceiling or, worse, blown the top off the primary.

This beer is going to be something - it should be close to 7% alcohol when it's all done in several weeks.
