Ok guys,

My Cab is racked into a secondary carboy now and I came home today and
the airlock is releasing bubbles every two seconds - I guess my theory
about a leaky primary lid seal was right...

Thanks for the help everyone. I appreciate it (damn, the airlock
smells good...)

Just a heads up, airlocks can a little leak too. I always scrape off
the sprue lines to get them flat. I just run a knife perpendicularly
to them.

Joe
