My stopper and airlock blew off. So, I find my stopper in one place and after about 5 minutes of searching find my airlock. So as this is about my 4th batch I freaking out. So I read up on the forums and I believe it was Revy saying something along the lines of yeast can cure about anything if you give it time. I do and the beer was the most carbonated beer I've had yet. Good flavor and I was very delighted with it. My concern was with oxidation. Not sure when or how long my carbos was open to the wind. I also know that contamination is the reason for having a sealed container. It was 2 weeks from start to finish and I bottled after 3 days of fermentation. What I would like to know is if being exposed to air helped it carbonate quicker. Thanks for your help all.
