Hello.
I was going to brew today but when I opened the lid on one of my yeast jars, a whole lot of CO2 came out and it foamed over a little bit. I squeezed the lid back on it and have been trying to get the CO2 out of it for about a day. I'm just wondering if it has went bad because of the co2. If I taste it, it tastes acidy but, I can't tell if that is actual acidy or too much star san that I used sanitizing the jar or if a high amount of CO2 makes it taste acidy. Can someone tell me what you think I should do? I'm open to any opinions or thoughts. It was top cropped yeast from my last batch of American wheat beer and it looks nice and clean. It was stored in RO water from the grocery store.
Thank you
