My first batch has been in the bottles for 4 weeks. I haven't noticed any yeast at the bottom of the bottles, does this mean anything in particular?
 
Most likely you have an infection. A wild bacteria must have gotten in and eaten all your yeast. Uncap all you bottles carfully and put in a pinch of dry yeast into each bottle and recap. Wait another 2 weeks then see if their carbed.





































Or maybe Im full of it and you can only just try one.:D
 
They carbed up fine. I tried one after 1.5 weeks and it didn't taste that great. Tried another after 2.5 weeks, tasted pretty good. Then I tried one after 3.5 weeks and it tasted great. I was just wondering why there was no yeast on the bottom...
