Guess the infection competition
Re: Guess the infection competition
that happened to my honey beer and my elderflower 'champagne' (which was foutainous to a point that the missus got upset at the state of the ceiling)
i think its down to carbonation, yeast keeps on going long after bottling (i fink!)

Re: Guess the infection competition
That's an exact rerun of how my bottling looked on Sunday! It's a carbonation thing, don't worry!

Re: Guess the infection competition
I get that when i add a spoon of sugar after i fill the bottle with ale.
