Hi all....I bottled my second batch of beer, ever. It was an extract kit, Irish Red Ale. I use the 500ml plastic bottles and put in one carbonation drop in each. The beer sat for almost two weeks at room temp, chilled, and tried them last night. I ended up opening every bottle and not one of them had any carbonation, they were all completely flat. Rather disappointing. My first batch I did in the same fashion, and probably 25% of them were light on carbonation but not completely flat. The caps were cranked on very well, so I don't think it was a leak, especially when every bottle was the same. Is one drop not enough, even though it worked on my first batch, or is something else wrong?
Thanks!
Thanks!
