i think this might be the dumbest post i've ever made, but honestly i need to ask it, because i feel like a dork when i go into my homebrew store now. i gave the owner two samples of my black raspberry ale (2 different batches), and her comment was "it was really bubbly" - is it because i bottled too soon? after reading some of the posts about fermentation times, i feel like a newbie (although i've brewed 16 batches over 3 years) - i move to secondary after 1 week, and then bottle after 1-2 weeks. gravity has been fine, but if i'm using the correct amount of priming sugar, and my bottles have never exploded, what the heck am i doing wrong? they're all super carbonated. except my oatmeal stout, which came out hardly carbonated at all - almost flat, which is not really that pleasant IMO
