Well, I was worried about this. I made a barley wine, OG of 1.090, FG of 1.020. It sat in primary for 2 weeks, secondary for 3 months, and has been in the bottle for 6 weeks. There is zero carbonation... absolutely none. And no, I didn't forget the priming sugar. I'm not really surprised since it was in secondary for so long.
So the question is what do I do now? Should I get some dry yeast and drop a few specs in each bottle then recap? If so, what kind of yeast? I used Wyeast 1056 for the fermentation.
On the bright side, it is DELICIOUS, even if it's not carbed.
