My ginger beer project erupted all over the ceiling

I tried making ginger beer for the first time last week. I followed the recipe but must have added too much sugar. After two days, I heard a loud pop from the pantry. When I opened the door, fizzy liquid was spraying everywhere like a geyser. It coated the shelves, the walls, and even dripped from the light fixture. I spent hours cleaning sticky ginger syrup off everything. Now I know to use stronger bottles for carbonation!

Neighborhood noise complaints just put our CNC shop on a daytime schedule. The backlog is unreal.
