Anyone ever notice that in a single batch you may have some beers that are more carbonated than others (bottled, of course)? I'm just about out of a batch of a Sam Smith's Nut Brown clone (5 weeks in the bottle when I cracked the first one), and some of them are a bit flat. I doubt it is my sanitation technique, but what about how I prime? I add 1 to 1 1/2 cups of DME (boiled in about 2 cups water) and stir gently into the bottling bucket before bottling. Is the sugar not mixing well? Also, I've noticed they are better carbonated if they aren't SUPER cold (like less than 40 degrees when served).
Just wondering if anyone has noticed this before. I appreciate the feedback.
