I kegged a Dogfish Head 60 minute clone on Sunday and just realized I used a whole 5 oz bag of corn sugar. I was planning on letting this keg condition for a couple of weeks and the keggerator is full. Will it be way over carbed? Is the anything I can do?
 
It's kegged, no problem! Just pull the release valve to release some pressure after a few weeks until you get the desired amount of carbonation.
 
If its a 5gal batch it won't be that over-carbed. It'll be like 3 volumes instead of the 2.2-2.7 like the style usually is, closer to a hefe level of carb.
