Guest guest Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 I have all my KT bottled up very nicely mostly in Fuze and Sobe bottles. Some have fruit like strawberries, grapes and or pineapple in them. I did this late Thur night. They are still on my shelf because I really don't have room in my fridge for them. They are sitting there real nice, minding their own business, not bubbling or anything, , , , , until I loosen a cap. Woa!! Mt. Vesuvius! Now what? I only opened 2, they both fizzed up, fast! I am afraid to open the other ones now. Help! Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yum, Sue, that sounds delicious! I see, your problem is the Geyser problem, which is probably better than the hot ash and lava experience ;-) > ... until I loosen a cap. Woa!! Mt. Vesuvius! Now what?

Yes been there and thought about a solution to the problem! :-) The thing that best worked for me was to have a largish clean vessel on standby beside the naughty fizzes. I quickly open a bottle with the lively genie that can't wait to pop out and let it gush into the container made ready, making sure the opening of the bottle points directly into the bigger container. It will initially look like one big froth ... but after a little while, once settled, it returns to its liquid form, after all the air has dissipated. Then I usually re-bottle the brew and top it up with more KT, especially before I give the bottle away - as I don't want the recipient to get into a sticky mess. ;-) Hope that works with you too, Sue. All the best with subdued fizz, Margret:-) from another wonderful sunny day in the UK. -- +------------------ Minstrel@... --------------------+ http://www.therpc.f9.co.uk/family/scobygrow/home.html http://bavarianminstrel.wordpress.com creation.com May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 ...CO2 gets to escape when pouring, or just leaving out without a cover, or cap. Usually refridgerating slows down fermentation, so the bubbling slows down, you have a point there..you do not have to leave bottles at room temp ( that increases CO2 usually) after bottling, if put straight into fridge, would slow bubbling action..( pouring it back and forth a couple of time from one container to the other, would get a lot of bubbles out. A lot of us like the bubbles, if u dont, than why not just bottle and put in fridge bottled. Every time you open the bottle CO2 escapes. Well i hope i got it covered ..much love ,Jahjet > > > I have all my KT bottled up very nicely mostly in Fuze and Sobe bottles. > > Some have fruit like strawberries, grapes and or pineapple in them. > > Yum, Sue, that sounds delicious!
