fermentation (using EZ caps pretty will always make champagne). If you want to
remove the carbonation you need to use a regular air lock to allow the gas to
release without letting in outside air (cheap and available on-line or at any
homebrew store). Also refrigeration doesn't totally stop the fermentation, it
just slows it down to a crawl, of course that depends on whether or not there's
any sugar left as well. Hope that answers your question.

coming out. The little slit isn't stuck or anything to that sort, because I push
it back down flat and it opens back up right away, pushing on the outside of the
bottle shows the contents are still under great pressure, and I can still feel a
faint bit of air coming out of the cap.

from here? I would imagine that if it was "done" and OK to begin drinking, the
cap wouldn't still be venting would it?
