I brewed a Belgian Golden Strong Ale back on May 4th. I let the beer stay in the primary for 3 weeks and then transferred to secondary. It has been sitting in the secondary since, which is 2 months. I am thinking about bottling it now but should I add some fresh yeast into the bottling bucket along with the priming sugar?
The beer is quite clear now, but there are still tiny bubbles rising from the bottom...almost like a beer with very little carbonation. So I know there are yeast still in there doing their magic, but will it be enough to carbonate a bottle?
Also, is the standard 5 ounces enough sugar or should I add another 1 or 2 ounces to carbonate it a little more like Duvel?
