    Flemish Red: aged 19 months, still at 1.010. Safe to bottle?

    Thanks to everyone who chimed in. I was under the impression that regular bottles couldn't take over 3.0 carb levels. Sorry for the red flags. Cheers!

    Where did you come up with the 5.9 oz of priming sugar? And what type of sugar was used?

    Op never stated what type of priming sugar, but imho, there is still much risk of bottle bombs in this scenario. Crack a bottle after 2 weeks to gauge carbonation and go from there.

    6 Oz Is waaaaaay too much. You would be risking bottle bombs! 1 oz /gal priming sugar would be on the higher end of carb levels.

    Hydrogen peroxide?

    Considering h2o2 breaks down into oxygen... it will be fine when used prior to pitching, but when fermented beer comes into contact with it there would be a risk of oxidation, though potentially small.
