My kraut bubbled over after 5 days and I read it's a sign of active lacto

I was checking my first batch of sauerkraut in a mason jar and it had leaked brine all over the counter. I looked it up in an old book from the library and it said that's a normal sign of strong lactic acid bacteria working. Does this mean I should just clean it up and let it keep going?

Clean it up, let it ride, and try not to picture my own kitchen disasters.

Oh man, what's the worst kitchen mess you've ever made? I still have nightmares about a flour explosion.

Ugh, flour is the worst! Leo's right though, you just gotta clean it and move on.
