This time I did 1 two liter of regular and one diet.

I made a starter this time water 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/2 to 3/4 of a packet champagne yeast. It was good and alive for sure this time.

New bottles I think my first bottles had sealing issues. They have the new style cap hope those work ok.

More sugar went into the diet this time. 8 tbs instead of 5.

My last results were barely fizzy very flat even after adding a bunch more sugar. Hence the new bottles. If all goes well maybe tomorrow I'll have rootbeer for the evening and fireworks.
 
Much better, the bottles are good and firm already.
 
It's been in the fridge for 4 days now while we were away camping I'll crack one open tonight to try it put.
