UPDATE! I’m doing some science, guess what I am making

The instructions (I watched a couple of different videos) were to leave the lid slightly loose to let the gas out. They said you should be able to slightly squeeze the bottle rather than it be rigid with a tight lid.

I always use a 5 litre water bottle or a demi-john with an airlock, you can just leave it to merrily ferment away on it's own. I have seen people put an uninflated balloon with a small pin prick over the top of the bottle, it allows the air to escape safely.
I don't think 2 weeks is much fermentation time, my blackberry ferments for at least 6 weeks.
You stupid fuckers, you know who you are. -

The method I used is to leave the lid slightly undone to let out the excess gas so I should be ok there … maybe I'll just give the lid more of a turn every couple of days just in case.
Oh ****, I saw something mentioned about blindness from home made wine but it sounded too scary so I decided to ignore it
Ok, I'll be sure to not drink the dregs.
it would be fairly lively if it was and you would be able to see the bubbles at the top, almost like when you have a fizzy drink.

Unless you're necking methylated spirits, you should be fine.
