So I bottle my NB Caribou Slobber a little over two weeks ago. Overall, thought the brew process went well. I used a touch more than the recommended corn sugar (that I calculated on the NB calculator), but not the full 5oz. I gently stirred in the sugar well when I racked to the bottling bucket.
The bottles have been sitting in my basement, which is a steady low 60's temp.
I tasted a few on Saturday (2 weeks exactly after bottling). First sip was great. Good head, nice carbonation. However after a few sips, the head was completely gone and the carbonation was lacking.
Do these need to sit for a couple more weeks? Or did I do something wrong?
Thanks.
