I had a few left over bottles that had homebrew in them that didn't get drank, for one reason or anything. A few months on, I decided to pop open each bottle in order to clean and reuse the bottles. When I took the caps off the 3 bottles, they appeared to be under tremendous pressure, enough that left unchecked, they probably would have exploded. The contents exploded out of the bottle when I popped the top.
This was a single hop IPA using all Citra. It was a 5-gallon batch that I added 4 oz. of corn sugar that was dissolved in two cups of water and put in the bottling bucket before I transferred the home brew out of the fermentation vessel. None of my batches have been short of carbonation, but should I consider reducing that 4 oz. of corn sugar?
