It's now the 2nd batch in a row and I get a little bit suspicious...
I make an extract recipe and use wyeast. Until recently I have never had a problem when it came to carbonation. The last batch has been sitting 18 days in primary and 22 days in secondary, then bottled and waited about 2 weeks before I put the bottles in the fridge to chill down, then about one more week till I opened the first bottle. Till that point it has been same game as always.
It is a 5gallon batch and for bottling I use ¾ cup of corn sugar in 1 coup of water and in my opinion the mix it up quite well with the beer racked from the secondary into the priming bucket before I bottle it.
The taste is just fine as always, besides the missing carbonation. Caps have been sitting well and I personally doubt I have a sanitation problem. I just cannot figure out whats wrong Any thoughts?
