Help oktoberfest not carbonating

[ejaraujo]

I brewed a northern brewer Oktoberfest extract kit back in June. I used a yeast starter kit and Wyeast #2633 Octoberfest Lager Blend. After 2 weeks I transferred the beer into a second fermenter and then proceeded with lagering. I kept it in the fridge for two months and then proceeded to bottle the beer and store it in room temperature for conditioning.




The beer has been conditioning for a little over two weeks and there's still no carbonation! I added priming sugar while bottling.




Anyone know if I need to just wait longer or if there could be something else wrong

Two weeks is pretty quick for a lager to carb up, unless you added a little ale yeast at bottling? If not, just wait it out.

Thanks Yooper! That makes me feel better. I didn't add ale yeast in before bottling. I did follow the instructions exactly, but I used a better yeast and a yeast starter, so maybe that's why it's taking longer. I will wait it out!
