    Hops fell on floor before dryhopping

    There is nothing you can do now but worry. With the alcohol in the beer i'm willing to bet you will be A-OK. I wouldn't worry about it if i were you.

    Fermentation issues or not.

    I agree most of these kit instructions are just not good. I would never ferment a Ale at 70+ degrees. And when alot of these no boil kits say lager. They come with nothing more then a Ale yeast.

    Fermentation issues or not.

Mine looked the exact same and that foam will drop in 2-3 days. I haven't tasted mine yet but i wouldn't make any judgements if you tasted it right after...

    Well strawberry ale on its way!!

    Ya i figured it was going to ferment when i added the strawberrys to secondary. Even though the strawberrys i bought didn't have any added sugars to them. There is still sugars in the strawberry it self. I had to unclog the blowoff hose three times during the first 24 hrs. I think i filled it up...

    Well strawberry ale on its way!!

    Ya i took a gravity reading at day 5 when krausen dropped. Went from 1.050 to 1.014. Took another reading on day 10 and it was the same. Then before i racked to secondary on day 13 i checked again no change.

    Over Carbonation

    Ya don't uncap them. That one bottle exploding was probably a isolated incident. Could have not been sanitized well or just got more honey then the others. Honey is hard to mix well in the bottling bucket compared to other priming sugars. I would do what unionrdr said and put them in a bin with...
