Hi All,
I think I may have bottled too early. I bottled it after it held at the same FG for a couple of weeks (1.005). It was dry and very bitter. After I bottled it I read a lot of comments I should have left it in the secondary for a couple months to see if the bitterness dropped and rounded out. When I bottled it I also put some in a sanitized soda bottle to see how it was carbing. I'm a week in and the plastic soda bottle is rock hard. Should I be worried about over carbing or bottle bombs? Also is there any work around to right this (ie. opening and pouring them back into a secondary for a while then rebottling)?
Thanks!
