Well, this was a first...I was making a starter using White Labs 013 London Ale. I had the vial out of the fridge for about an hour and was about to pitch it in my cooled wort. I gave it a good shake, opened the vial, and the thing exploded like I just shook a can of warm Coca Cola. The thing acted like it had carbonation!
Has anyone ever experienced this before with White Labs vials? I put the cap back on, let it settle down a bit. I reopened and it kind of erupted again....I was able to pour it in my flask, but I'm just confused as to why this would happen.
Anything you think I should be concerned about? I'm bummed because I lost a bit of my yeast......
