I brewed a Hefeweizen 3 weeks back and used a starter for the first time. This created more yeast activity than I was used to. I was letting it ferment at a friend's house, so I didn't get a chance to come back and check on it for almost a week, at which point I found it with the airlock popped off. I don't know when it actually popped, but I'm guessing somewhere around the 24 hour mark. I decided to sanitize and replace the airlock and worry about it later. From other forums I've read, people have been safe after finding it less than a day later, but this is probably 5-7 days of air exposure.
I was going to bottle today, any chance that my beer is still ok? or should I just not even bother bottling...
Thanks.
