I just brewed a batch of beer and, in an attempt to make things easy, i bottled in cleaned, sanitized Grolsch pop-pop bottles. The only problem is they are over carbonated (probably due to temperature at bottling and too much priming suger. I opened one and it blew the pop top right of the bottle as if it were champagne! It was a mess. Needless to say, the beer was no good, and what stayed in the bottle just foamed out for 10 minutes.
My question is how can I best, safely open the remaining bottles with out beer exploding everywhere? I am worried about the bottles cracking or something when I open them.
How cold can I get the beer to reduce the CO2? Could I bring it to near freezing and would that significantly lower the pressure, allowing me to open them in a safer manner?
Thanks in advance!
