MacGyver - Homebrew Edition

So last night we were sitting in the living room and all of a sudden, we hear a hissing noise.  Figured it was the cats.  It wasn't.  The air lock on my latest brew was overflowing and hissing like an over-carbonated 2 liter of Mountain Dew.


I had a problem. I didn't have any tubing small enough to fit into any of my stoppers.  After some panic, my inner MacGyver kicked in.  I had a turkey baster that fit into the stopper and the end of the baster was wide enough to jam some of the tube that I did have into the other end. Not pretty.  But it works.  The water and sanitizer solution in the growler is still bubbling away this morning.
