hello.
I'm very new at this...
i bottled my first brew, and after 7 days a cracked open a bottle to test it. it surprisingly tasted descent, however, there was only minimal carbonation. I used the recommended amount of cane sugar and bottled it about 2" from the top of the bottle. also, the beer i bottled was VERY clear, almost like there were no yeast in it. beer was a bit sweet though.
Questions: did i do things right?
is there a way to improve carbonation?
will waiting another week improve carbonation?
is it a problem that the beer was extremely clear?
thanks for your time helping out a new brewer!
