Broken Bottle

[BuckeyeGambler]

I went to take inventory 4 weeks after my last bottling in my closet. After moving some bottles around I found one extremely light and realized the bottom had broken. The area around this bottle was completely dry so I am assuming this happened weeks ago. This was the only bottle that was broken. Has anyone had this happen before? Should I worry about my batch exploding after 4 weeks or chalk it up to one crappy bottle?

I'd write it off as a crappy bottle; I've had that happen before with a couple different commercial ones. You might want to toss any bottles that seem "flimsier" than the rest into the fridge though, just to be safe. By now I don't imagine there's much in the way of fermentables left, so there's probably little to be concerned about as far as additional kerplosions .

One crappy bottle it is then. Guess I will have to buy more Sam Adams and Great Lakes to replace it. Oh darn!
