How much corn sugar per bottle? Getting ready to keg now and want to bottle off a six pack but I don't want to prime the whole batch. Thanks.

Probably wanna get carb tabs for that. They are premeasured tablets you drop right into the bottle.

I have used .5 tsp of corn sugar with good results. I ran out of carb tabs and had to use something for the last few bottles. a half tsp. is equal to about 2.1 grams.

Thanks JOHN
To do it right you need a scale that weighs to one tenth a gram. You want 1.5 to 4 grams per bottle depending on the desired C02 volumes.
Make a syrup by boiling the sugar in water like normal, then use a graduated oral syringe from the drug store to evenly distribute the mixture among the bottles.
