Put a porter into the bottling bucket. Go to clean the fermenter and there wasa damned honeybee in the yeast cake!

I will monitor closely for overfermentation.

Well, I burped the bottles twice yersterday, and things appear to be more "normal."

I used a 20oz Sprite plastic bottle to gauge carbonation, and yesterday was very rapid carbonation. The other bottles were flip tops. I burped them, and they all had a resounding "POP" when I opened the bails. I did taste the beer yesterday, and there were no off flavors or aromas. We will see in two weeks or so.

Tasted the beer in the test bottle. No off flavors. Gonna work out, I believe.

The bee was intact, so I think it got in after the boil.
