Well, it's my first batch but I'm already worried about the carbies.
I've been extra careful of course but I opened a bottle last night (after 6 days in the bottle at the same temp as fermentation) and it didn't gush or overflow... but when I poured it into a glass the bubble just kept coming from the bottom, i could control the head pretty easily... and it didn't overflow or anything... but the bubbles just kept coming and my green beer had a definite carbination bite to it.
Any ideas? Am I doomed here for bombs or gushers soon? just keep checking every few days?
It's just a basic american wheat. I've already got my supplies ready for my next batch, gonna try a pale ale I think, keep things simple for a few batches.
Anyway, just thought I'd post and see what you experts think.
Thanks so much for your help!
