Hello Everyone,
This is my first time brewing as well as posting on this forum. There is such and abundant amount of information on here it is amazing.
I brewed my first Batch 2 weeks ago it was an extract recipe from BB, A Rye Pale Ale. Everything came out great and the flavor is awesome, but when I was racking my beer into the glass carboy for 2nd fermentation I disrupted all the trub. I decided not to transfer and basically dumped it. I know.. I know.. thats alcohol abuse. lol, but I didn't want to have off flavors in my beer. So the problem that I'm concerned with is. I primed and bottled my beer with the sugar that came with the kit, but now i realized that it is made for a batch of 5 gallons and my finished batch was 4 gallons after dumping the bit of beer. So, Im scared I might have over carbonated my beer or Im going to have hand grenades in my kitchen.
Any words of wisdom?
