Hello,
I have just finished carbonating an extract brew I made. This is the first time I've poured sugar into the bottles instead of using the pre measured sugar drops from coopers.
Well, it's been 2 weeks ( it's a cream ale ) and while there is carbonation, it's not carbed all the way. Imagine leaving your beer on the table for 2 hours and coming back to it, that's how they are.
I was wondering if I could open up the bottles, add a little more sugar, and close them up again? I'm using the plastic screw top 16oz bottles for this. I think I used 12oz measurements and didn't increase it enough.
Thanks,
-Adam
