i'm gonna get killed for this...but here it goes...........

I had 11 bottles from the last soda keg I filled. I put 1/2 teaspoon of table sugar....YES TABLE SUGAR.....in each bottle and every of the five i've opened so far (because the soda keg is now empty) all of them have been perfect.

Take it as you will. I'm not sure of the amount you would need for corn sugar.

IGOR (keeping it simple)

4.8 US fluid ounces = 28.8 US teaspoons

So, if you have around 56 bottles and are using around 4.8oz of priming sugar, you should only use 1/2 a tsp.

I agree with clayof2day, for small projects, the tabs are worth the extra few cents. Also, one other option, from the thread "We don't need to stinkin beer gun" they show you an inexpensive way to put force carb'd beer into a bottle using a very common instruments.

I have a question, it you are to use one teaspoon per 12oz bottle for priming,
what amount of dextrose would I use to prime a 40oz bottle?
