I'm new to this. Just done my second kit brew and same problem as the first:
Brewed fine, all went well and bottled first brew. Opened and some bottles were flat and some were really fizzy. The odd ones that were ok tasted fine. This was an old English ale made with dried extract.
Second brew tried the raspberry wheat beer which is tinned extract thinking that was the issue. Decanted the brew into 2 5l kegs and rest bottled. I left it two weeks longer in the fv and again some bottles flat, some very very fizzy. Last bottle sprayed all over the mother in law :lol: The two kegs are so pressured they have misshapened but not burst, yet!
What am I doing wrong? I want to do a few simple kits first before moving onto, extract brewing etc but I'm losing confidence fast.
Can someone help please.
Thanks:smile:
