I'm new to brewing. I have brewed 2 batches from kits that I ordered from Austin Homebrewing. One was a Texas Blonde Ale and the other was a Mexican Lager. Both tasted fine but not enough carbonation. Both batches I bottled and stored for 4 weeks. I put some in the fridge for a week or so and they would be flat when I opened them. I thought maybe I didn't get a good seal on the caps so I shook them up and opened a hot one and it went everywhere. So I tried a warm one out of the closet without shaking it and it was carbonated. So I shook some up, refridgerated them a few days and they were kinda carbed but not enough. I thought that I did something wrong while bottling but my last batc of the Mexican Lager did the same thing. any ideas ???
