Recently I haven't been taking an FG reading for my brews, combined with erring on the side of more sugar in priming (usually 3/4 cup for 5G) - I've had a few beers go boom as the basement warms up.
Consequently two questions:
1) I've started placing the affected batches in a fridge. My assumption is that the cold will lead to the Co2 getting absorbed in the liquid reducing bottle bombs. Once I do this, if bottles get back to room temp - does more co2 indeed remain in the liquid?
2) With Cold crashing - how can I bring bottles back up to room temp. Should I concerned about skunkage?
