Question using Carb Tabs

DieterVonBrauhaus · Jan 6, 2011

Hello all,
I decided to use Munton Carb Tabs on my last batch, but failed to read the instructions as I should have because I only put 1 tablet in each 12oz bottle.
I've stored bottles for a week now, can I open the bottles and add 4 more tabs and re-cap them?
Intructions for carb tabs are 5 or more tabs per 12oz bottle.
Thanks

That's a tough one...If it was me, I'd try it on at least a couple or maybe half the batch (or enough that I was willing to lose).

What is there to lose, if I don't I will end up with flat beer anyway

I just used some muntons carb tabs which said they carb in a week. I used them on a 1.045 og pale and it took close to four weeks to carb (which was more realistic then their week estimation. They also say 3 tabs for low carb, and 5 for high carb. If you are going to add more tab, i wouldnt add more than 4 and give them bout a month to carb right before cracking one open again. Good luck

Is there any one else that would try to open the bottles and add more munton carb tabs?
