I just popped open a few bottles of beer I brewed and the carbonation is not there in 3 out of the 4 first bottles. The fermentation went really strong in the primary the loud bubbling kept my wife and I up at night! Secondary was quiet and uneventful... So...
I believe the problem is a faulty capper. I used an antique capper and I had to really pull hard and twist to get the bench capper to let go of the freshly capped bottle. I believe this may have broken the seal on most of the bottles.
I'm relatively new at this... Do you guys think my beer can be saved? Should i add more priming sugar and recap with a new capper? Should I add more yeast and recap? Or did my beer carbonate, then go flat, making the beer ruined?
Please help.
Thanks!
