All my recipes said add 5 oz priming sugar to 1 cup boiling water and let cool! Then add to beer when racking to your bottling bucket! Then bottle!
Or, you can gently stir the sugar solution into the beer with a sanitized spoon.
For my first brew, I just poured all of the sugar solution on the bottom and racked on top, not thinking much about it. The result? The earlier bottles were severely over-carbed (some actually exploded), and the later bottles were flat.
