I apologize if this has been covered somewhere else (mods, please move if I'm in the wrong place!)
My husband made a couple of beer kits a while back (9 months or so), and they took a very long time to carbonate, then the ones that did have a great, thick head - then they are flat within a minute.
What causes this? I'm going to do a GF Chocolate Vanilla Ale from scratch and I do not want this to happen during priming - I like LOTS of little bubbles and quite heavy carbonation.
What would I need in a 1 Gal recipe to attain a great amount of carbonation that stays around long enough to finish the drink?
