I brewed a batch and set i primary up. all was well but after a couple days the lid to the primary looked like it was ready to pop off the bucket. my air lock was full of junk from the primary.what should i do so that i dont lose the batch?

thanks for the info. i will definatly do a blowoff from now on. I ended up racking it only becasue i didnt know whaat to do. Hopefully this doesnt ruin the batch. do you think it will?

I think you shall be ok,the yeast were doing there job when you racked it though.Unless it's a really large beer i just replace the airlock with a clean one.Blow-off tube is just fine though.
