I bottled my beer last Saturday. This is my first batch, so I don't know what to look for. After 2 days of conditioning I pulled one bottle out and refridgerated it for 2 additional days. After that short time, to my surprise there was a C02 release when I popped the top, and when I poured it into a glass there a small amount of head that lasted. There were a few bubbles that made there way up the sides of the glass and the beer didn't really taste all that green. I can only imagine what another 2 weeks will bring.
That all said... should I be concerned this batch is carbonating too fast. Am I potentially looking at two cases of gushers or God forbid a few bombs? This is an american amber ale with a final gravity below 1.02 (1.018-1.019). Please put my mind to ease, or offer steps to help remedy a possible problem.
