I just recently completed my first home brew. It's a nut brown ale that I had in the primary for 2 weeks, the secondary for 1 week, and in the bottle for 3 weeks now.
I messed up when bottling my beer and measured out 3/4 cup of sugar using a kitchen measuring cup instead of putting 2 and 2 together and using the entire 5 oz supply I recieved from midwest supplies. Looking at what was left in the bag it looks like I used only about 2oz of it.
The beer carbed up and tastes great it's just not as carbed as I would like it to be. My question is can I take off the caps and add one of the Cooper's drops to each bottle, recap them, and give them a couple more weeks? Or will this over carb it and mess everything up?
I know everyone on the forum hates when the same questioned gets asked over and over but I couldnt find the answer to this anywhere else on the forum. Any advice will help.
