I used plain table sugar my first time for both fermenting and priming. I let it brew longer by a few days and after about 2 weeks in the bottles it was great. Oh and I used a secondary fermenter after.
Awesome idea!! No more air lock needed, ever. I put the hose through the bung and the other end through a tight hole in the a 5gl bucket lid and then into a sealed jar of sodiummetastuf with 2 more holes in the lid for ventilation. This set up I placed in the 5gl bucket and the lid rested on...
