my bottles have been over carbonating!!!!!!! here is my process:
I wait for the fermentation to stop, usually in the 1.010 OG range, I do a cold crash at about 35°f for 2-3 days. I rack to a keg and force carbonate at 20 psi, for aprox 3 days. I then bottle with a blichmann gun.
the first weeks the beer is perfectly carbonated, but when they are over 4 weeks old, they are very very carbonated. obviusly they are continuing to ferment and carbonate in bottle.
is this normal? orshould I do something about it, like pasteurize?
Thanks
