i think i have made a miscalculation when priming my pressure barrel with sugar, it seems too sweet for a bitter. should i replace it in the fermenting tub and add more yeast to eat the excess sugar or will it sort its self out with time? please advise someone.
 
The existing yeast will consume all of the sugar. Give is a couple more weeks in the barrel, but you might have to release the pressure once or twice.
