I let the fermentation last that long because the bigger beer needed time and everything I have read indicated that this was acceptable for a Scottish. I brewed this for my wife, who was pregnant, and this was her favorite beer. I didn't need the beer to be finished before the end of May...

Hello all. I know there are a number of threads on this, but I can't seem to get anything to work. On the last several batches I have had issues with carbonation. I use the plastic carboys and add the priming corn sugar to the bottling bucket before bottling. I always ferment in one bucket...
