I was working on a Dunkelweizen: OG 1.058, and FG at bottling 1.023.
The fermentation might have been stuck but I have tried stirring and warming it up and it didn't change after a week. I had it in primary for 1 week and in secondary for two.
I added 5oz of corn sugar and stirred well and bottled.
I am instantly regretting this decision because I am worried that I may have just created future bottle bombs!
I feel like an idiot right now. A scared idiot.
At the time I justified my decision in that the chocolate malt and other infermentables in the extract raised the FG.
As of right now it has been bottled for about a day. What do you think the best course of action is going forward?
I am going to try opening one in a couple days to test carbonation. Then if that is okay then try again in another couple days after that. I was thinking that if it is really foamy that soon then I can open them all and let them de-carbonate and then recap them.
