I made a stout this past winter and after 10 days in the primary and then 53 days in the secondary the fg was 1.020 with a og of 1.060. I know a little high but I went ahead and bottled. I figured it was done. Well I walked into the beer cellar (a spare room in the basement which stays around 60 year round) yesterday and beer on the floor and a shattered bottle on the shelf. My first beer bomb. So I took one and opened it and waited for the foam to stop coming out and took a gravity reading and guess what 1.010 a ten point drop. I then did some research on the forums and I unfortunately deiced to not chance more bombs and I dumped it.
My question is Do you think it is safe to reuse those bottles or have they been weaken and may or may not hold regular carb pressure?
Thanks
