I brewed a Trippel:
SG 1.090
FG 1.020
My SG was about 1.095, but my finishing gravity was about 1.040. Being an idiot, I bottled at ten days like the recipe said instead of seeing if the gravity was stable. I used 5 oz of priming sugar. After two days, I opened a warm bottle. It had a little hiss, but then started to gush. The beer was mostly flat though as the CO2 hadn't equalized. I did take a measurement and it was about 1.046.
What to do? Wait it out? Uncap and recap? Pour it all back into a fermenter? Yes I'm stupid.
