    carbonation alteration with AHS homebrew kit

    So I'm brewing my second batch, an AHS extract kit for a Double Chocolate Stout. When I bottle, I want there to be only moderate carbonation, a la Guinness. The instructions say to use 4.5 oz of the supplied priming sugar for 5 gl of brew. Should I use less? If so, how much less? Thanks!! :mug:
