carbonation

[ThirstyHobbit]

I just tasted my first AG Porter (OG 1072 FG 1012) and it tastes AWESOME! Except for that it is a bit sweet, and it's pretty flat. I put the normal 3/4 cup of corn sugar, but maybe I needed more since its a pretty big beer? Also, I am tasting it 3 weeks after bottling. I've been told that the sweetness mellows out over time. This is my first really big beer.

Should I wait another month to drink?
Will it get more carbonated over time?
Should I have added more priming sugar? (I didn't want bottle bombs)

Thanks!!!

Yes, yes, and no.

No more sugar! Forget about it for a few weeks longer; time will be good for it and make it taste yummy and carbonated.
