Fishing for some options here for some woefully under-carbonated beer.
Quick overview:
I did a partigyle brew to make 3 2.5 gallon batches, all English varieties. The web priming calculator I normally use recommended .3 oz to carbonate a 2.5 gallon batch to about 1 atmosphere (cask style Mild and an ESB). It seemed a bit low, even for 2.5 gallons, but I did it and it is too weakly carbonated.
So as for my options, I saw that you can get those carbonation tablets and just drop one in a bottle and then cap it up. Has anyone used these, and would it be crazy/would it work to open up all those beers, drop a sugar pellet in and then cap them all back up?
Thanks in advance for any insight.
