corn sugar

[marshman]

Alright, I know it's generally frowned upon around here, but I've got a pound leftover from my Mr. Beer days, and I was wondering if it'd be better as bottling sugar OR should I just dump it into my next "Big Beer"? If I throw it into something, does it need to run the full boil, or can I just dump it in at the end and let it dissolve? I always got decent beer from the Mr. Beer kits, but I've grown beyond that. I just hate to see stuff go to waste.

Save it for use as priming sugar.

OK. Should/do I need to bother boiling it as I had been with DME, or can I just go back to early days and put 1/4 tsp in each bottle and roll?

alot of people are doing 4oz of corn sugar per 5 gal rather than doing it on a per bottle basis. You get more of a more consistent result when you mix it with the whole batch.
