Hello!
I've had my brew on for 3/4 weeks in the pressure barrel, and even though I added the correct amount of sugar the barrel didn't seem to pressurise. I can get just under half a pint out before it stops, then a couple days later it will let me get another nearly half a pint, and that's it.
I have bought a CO2 bulb which you screw onto the top and it releases CO2 into the barrel.
As the barrel is nearly full to its max level line, I was worried about how much CO2 I can put in the barrel. Can I just use the whole CO2 bulb, or would this put too much pressure into the barrel? I'm just not sure how much to put into it!
Any ideas would be appreciated! Thank you.
