Priming sugar

[pmkealiher]

Anyone use anything other than corn sugar for bottling? I'll be bottling a porter in a couple weeks and was thinking of trying some molasses or brown sugar instead of corn sugar. Does it work well, and does it add good/bad flavors?

Yep, you can use any sugar. Some add more favour than others, and you've gotta use slightly different amounts depending on what you use. Someone else will undoubtedly chime in here with more knowlesge
