The RDWHAH experiment

[skw]

I can see visible bubbles levitating upwards in the last two, most messed up bottles, i wonder if that means some bottle bombs will happen later.

Be careful. Have you ever seen what yeast slurry can do to a sealed jar? I don't know what it is, but that yeast sediment can have a life of its own.

You will make swill, but it may not go completely lacto as long as you really mash at 165. Otherwise the bugs will already be in charge since you aren't boiling.

Good luck. Or bad luck. Or whatever it is you want, exactly.

I will open it's cap slightly until i can hear it hissing and then will recap it, i am curious about the possible off-tastes even if the carbonation will be really weak this way.

So i opened the most disgusting bottle today (it spent 5-6 months in the bottle @70F) and while carbonation was low (since i opened it during the first weeks because i had fears about bottle bombs) it tastes as good as ever, color and smell are all right and taste too expect for weak carb. Despite it had all the chance to get oxidated and maybe infected it turned out good for some reason.
