Default Coopers carb drops
Bottling the sparkling pale ale kit, got pint bottles so 558, one or two carb drops?

Don't want exploding bottles!

Depends on the level of carbonation you want. Probably two for bombers.

If by pints you mean 16oz bottles,then one drop should do it. As I understand from cooper's,one drop for 12-16oz,2 drops for the cooper's 25.16oz PET bottles.

Aiptasia was musing maybe 2 for a bomber. I think those are more than 25oz. But what I related holds true,trust me.

Bag sizes have US / OZ sizes, UK have different measurements, bag didn't help to much. Being very indecisive I added one and a half per pint bottle. They actually split really easy. I quite like a fuzzy pint, so hope I haven't buggered it.

Thanks for the advice and will let you k ow how it goes ( even if it means you can say I told you so)
