I did a dog fish 120 clone and bottled it 10 days ago.
I had 5 gallons at bottling time. The alcohol came out to about 18%.
I know I should of added more yeast but I did not.
Beer Smith says I should have about 2.2 volumes of CO2.
However I taste tested it today and there is very little carbonation in the bottles.
Will it just take longer to carbonate? Or is this very expensive batch destined for the drain? Which would be a real shame, the flavor and body of thus brew is so great... I surprised myself.
