Details of my cider:
Local UV Pasteurized cider
Nottingham yeast
OG: 1.056
FG: 1.010
Bottled with 5oz of priming sugar.
I bottled on October 14.
I opened the first yesterday to find a nice gushing bottle (bottle at room temp). I chilled one and opened when cold; this resulted in not much overflow (opened very slowly).
Opened another tonight (6 days from bottling). Another gusher after slowly letting gas out.
The cider is very carbonated, champagne like.
I referenced this thread about early carbonation- https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f32/another-possible-bottle-bomb-thread-196001/
Also checked this out- https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f32/carb-process-watch-these-vids-tell-me-what-wrong-197943/
Mine doesn't shoot high, but just continues to roll out of the bottle.
My plan is to Pasteurize using Pappers method.
So my question: Should I do it now or try something else?
I have been silent for a while now, but thanks for all of the help.
