A few months ago I tried making a raspberrry porter. When it was ready for carbonating and bottling I used 3/4 cup of suger and bottled it up. It's been bottled for almost two months now, and I've popped a few open and found that none of them have any carbonation. Being as this was only my second brew, I forgot the get the OG or FG. I'm guessing all the yeast were dead and there were none left to eat up the sugars. Seems obvious anyway.
Now I'm about ready to bottle a orange hef. This time I have my OG ( 1.034), and I'll take my FG tomorrow before I bottle. What range should I be looking for to ensure I'm not going to end up with a flat beer again? Also, is there any way to save the raspberry porter I have? I didn't throw it away yet, ( it tastes great, just flat ) but I'm hoping it can be fixed somehow.
This noob thanks you for the help!
