So I did my first bottling last Wednesday. All went well, but today something was nagging at the back of my mind as I thought about the pressure those bottles will be exposed to as they carb. Specifically a growler I had filled. Yeah, you know where this is going. Did I mention it's a screw top? So now I have searched the forums here at HBT and know that wasn't such a good idea.
What do I do? Put it in a sealed bag in a cardboard box and cross my fingers? Open it and transfer it to bottles? I am a bit worried about transferring it just because I don't want to tinker with it anymore than I have to, but I guess as long as I sanitized properly there shouldn't be any issues.
What would you all suggest?
