Alright...
Over the last 15 months, I've bottled about 12 batches and kegged 30+ and I've never had carbonation issues on all my bottled or kegged beer as I (thought) I had acquired enough knowledge and patience to do it right.
However, the last 3 bottled batches have become overcarbonated after about 3 months. They were fine the first and second month but then eventually became overcarbonated.
I didn't think that beer continues to carbonate for months...does it?
The three overcarbonated batches were all ales between 1.040 and 1.060 in a room with an ambient temperature of around 60 degrees.
Hoping for better ideas then "drink your beer quicker" or "a troll is sneaking more yeast and sugar your beer and just messing with you."
Cheers.
