Ok second bottle is also over carbonated as well. Tastes great though!

I know you guys said it could be that it wasn't fully fermented but if that was the case why are the other bottles from the batch perfect? (If not under-carbonated just yet.) I did do the True Lemon bottling last not sure if that matters?

Some mentioned infection. Again that would be odd that the infection was isolated to just the True Lemon batch, why not the others?

You guys are right though. Even if I added 8 grams from 8 packs (over exaggerating) of True Lemon packets that's really not all that much sugar.

I'm stumped!
 
I boiled the 2C of water for the priming solution. I added the Trulemon & priming sugar wjile still boiling hot & stirred till the water cleared again. This would've negated any infection from the Trulemon/priming solution.

Ahh I hadn't thought of infection from the TrueLemon, that could be it!!! I didn't boil it, just dumped it right on in...
