No.....depends on how you like your carb level though....won't hurt a thing.

 

If you fermented around 70F, this will produce about 3 volumes of CO2. That's pretty high, but most amber bottles can take up to 3.25 in my experience. I have not pushed it any higher. Chill these down pretty well, and pour slowly to the side of a tilted glass, as they will create a pretty big head!

 

good I want a nice head on my beer....

Depends on the style and personal preference.
