I bottled a coffee stout (Midwest kit) three weeks ago and am now enjoying the results. The beer tastes looks and tastes great. However......
I've opened seven bottles so far and one of them was extremely over-carbed. No matter how slow I poured, it would turn to instant foam.
Just curious if someone has an idea why one (and possibly more) bottles turned out this way and the rest are fine?
FYI - This beer was 10 days in primary, 16 days in secondary and a full three weeks in the bottles. When I bottled, I first put the boiled/cooled priming sugar solution into the bottling bucket and then racked the beer into the bucket. There is no reason that I can think of that the priming sugar wouldn't have been thoroughly mixed.
Now back to drinking the beer..........
