I bottled 12, 12 oz bottles and legged the rest. I used the carbonation pellets. I put 4 per bottle as the directions said for med carb. How long does it take for the pellets to take effect?
 
Know you have been working at the computer too long when you see this thread and thought it said,
"Crab Bullets".

Also interested in how this turns out. My carbonation could use a helping hand.
 
The carb pellets are just sugar. So it will take as long as it normally would for the yeast to eat the sugar and create the CO2. Plus however long it takes for all of the sugar to dissolve. So about 2-3 weeks give or take. Keeping the bottles warmer will help it go faster.
