Ok. I brewed my first brew, a Bascon Brown Ale from here:

Props to the Wine and Hop shop.
It spent one week in the primary, 2 weeks in the secondary. I then primed with 3/4 c of corn sugar, boiled with water, cooled, put it in a bucket, racked my beer onto it and bottled.
I bottled them 2 weeks 4 days ago they have been sitting between 70-74. I have tried them weekly since they were bottled and they have, so far, been dead flat. Maybe a bit of gas escapes when opening but none in the beer. (I refrig 24 hours before opening). There is no sediment on the bottom.
During the last week I have taken Evan!'s advice and started shaking the crap out of a few to see if that helps.
I don't want to start a new carbonation thread as it has not yet been 3 weeks at 70, so I won't. But just to warn you, there may be one coming. So I'll say a little prayer for my beer in the language of yeast and their close cousins, cats:
Yeests plz to finish eatin and poopin so I can has beer now. KThxbai.
