I'm on my third batch of home brew. The first two came out great. Third batch got me. I didn't use enough sugar when I bottled. It was a 2.5 gallon batch, I used 1.5oz of corn sugar. I should have used around 2.25oz. I let it sit in the bottle for 2 weeks. The beer tastes OK. It's just a little on the flat side. Will letting it sit for another couple of weeks help or is the lack of sugar just going to leave it flat? I have read some older posts with the same problem and there were suggestions of opening the bottles and adding more sugar and a little bit of yeast. Let it sit or open it? What's the best option?
