:fro:I've been doing 1 gallon batches for a while now (up to like 10-12 batches now). I started with Brooklyn Brewshop kits and have since made 6 of my own. Basically since batch 1, I have been getting random overcarbs. Just a few bottles from the batch.
I have tried using different honeys and maple so far. The recipes call for 3tbsp. I usually do 3 or even a little short of the brim on all 3 tbsp. Less has seemingly been better but I did get a slow volcano on a few of those. I don't get why it's random though. I mix the honey/maple in with the beer thoroughly as it comes out of primary into another pot. I suppose some could be settling to the bottom, but it's not all the likely. In any case, any ideas how to remedy that? Could the problem be caused by anything else?
These are straight up all-grain brews spending 14+ days in the carboy and then to the bottle for 2+weeks...
