I brewed two delicious 5 gallon batches (a russian imperian stout that I added hops to in the last 5 of boil & a custom IPA that tastes fantastic) and now, 3 weeks after they've been in the bottles, theyre both flat as can be. I used the priming calculator website and followed their recomendations. I feel like the suggested priming sugar amounts were low. Cant recall off the top of my head but I want to say it suggested 4-5 oz for the IPA and close to the same for the stout. Both were dead on 5 gallons of volume and at about 69 degrees when bottling took place. So, now im wondering, will they carb up in time (aka give um another 2 weeks) or do I pop the tops and add a certain amount of sugar to each bottle and re-cap? Both of the beers taste very good. They are just as flat as can be. Jesus help me.....
