This could be the result of many causes - incomplete fermentation (bottling too early), over priming, or infection come to mind.

Yah I reread the instructions and it said level teaspoon. I'm pretty sure I used the biggest teaspoon I had and heaped it. Ah well I'll learn some day

I know my LHBS has buckets for under $20
Pretty sure fermentation was finished.
Pretty sure fermentation was finished. 17oz bottles for a heaped teaspoon. Far too much lol. So should I release the gas every once in a while do u think
I shall invest seems like more sterilising and cleaning. I was previously using carb drops
