It's been 3 weeks since I bottled this https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f71/easy-chimay-blue-clone-73965/
To carbonate, I used carbonation drops, 5 in each bottle (instructions said 5 for high carbonation) and when I opened one of these beers up, it was totally flat. I thought maybe it was a fluke, ended up opening up another two beers, both flat as well.
I am debating on what to do now, my thought was to pour all the beer back into the bottling bucket, add another back of yeast, wait 3 days, add priming sugar and rebottle. I wanted to wait 3 days, because if the yeast is dead, and that is why it is not carbonating, I don't want excess sugar in each bottle making beer bombs.
Ideas? Thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks
