Yet another question for all the talent within this forum....am not to sure what to think of this so I thought I'd ask the experts.
Been brewing for couple years now and haven't came across this , To make it quick....have a wheat ale (0g 1.60)fermenting for its 2nd week in the secondary ( 4 weeks total) 3 days of continued similar gravity readings indicated that it was complete. Dry hopped last night and when I dumped the pellets into the carbon it immediately started fizzing and bubbling like it was already carbonated ?? So much so that I put a blow hose back on it and it foamed over and bubbled and fizzed like nobody's business. This lasted about 20 mins then it calmed right back down. What do ya think?? A little background about this brew ..the fact is I have been worried that it was infected early on because of a off smell in the starter that has passed over to the brew.. I stepped this yeast up from dregs so the chance of infection is there for sure.
Any advise would be awesome
Thanks
