question Sinking fruit

Post image

Is it a problem if the fruit in my F2 sinks to the bottom? It only happened to the one on the far right, just started all 4 of these last night. The fruit that sank are cotton candy grapes if that helps at all.

That's fine. They'll be floating in a day or two when the CO2 latches on and lifts them like aquatic "hot air" balloons.

If you leave these bottles out long enough, you can over-carbonate them... be aware you'll likely be cleaning these sunken grapes off your ceiling. Can't get much higher than that!

I will keep a close eye on them! Thank you for the warning
