Brewed a batch of East Coast IPA using WLP007 (dry english ale yeast)
OG was 1.058
FG was 1.015
I bottled at 2.3volumes using 102 grams of table sugar (sucrose) for a 5 gallon batch.
It was nicely carbonated and had no problems whatsoever.
2-3months later, some bottles were at some friends house and had been sitting at room temp (68-70deg) all this time. Both my friends reported that when they opened the bottle, foam gushed all over the place.
Had a similar experience with the same yeast (bottles were foaming pretty hard, o had to transfer in a glass pretty quickly to save the counters). This previous brew had a FG of 1.016.
Any explanation?
