Also, make sure you're carbing by weighing the sugars, not measuring teaspoons or something.

And remember that "temperature" on the calculator means the highest temp your brew has reached during the fermentation process, not the temp you expect to carb at.

amazing tips because I both measured sugar out in teaspoons and used the wrong temperature.
Now, any suggestions for purchasing a good scale?

The website gives me measurements for glucose, sucrose, and DME. What if I want to carbonate with maple syrup?

Haven't done that before, but I think you can look at the nutritional data for the syrup, and convert volume to weight of the sugar content.

Found this calculator that lists maple syrup.

I use a $20 digital kitchen scale I found at Walmart. Weighs everything from priming sugar to grains & hops. I also use those small bathroom size plastic cups for weighing small amounts, like hops. Saw Sam Calgione use'em for experimental batches. And those plastic deli-style lunch meat containers for weighing out larger amounts, like priming sugars or sugar additions to a batch. Small SS bowls for weighing grains. I use these two priming calculators;

The different priming calculators all have a bit different beer styles listed that others don't. So I skip around, depending on the style.
