Scorching Sugar
Member
I used all 5 gallons of water in my boil. I bottled this weekend using 2 cups water with 3/4 cup priming sugar. After it was all bottled the batch only yielded 3.5 gallons of brew. I have the following questions:
1) Will my bottles explodes? Did I use too much priming sugar because the recipe was intended for 5 gallons of beer.
2) When brewing using a full boil should one top off after the boil to return the volume to 5 gallons?
3) Is the head space for a 22oz bottle the same as the that of 12oz bottle?
