priming time limit

[Redhammer]

After I add my primer how much time do I have before I have to rack it?

Well, you won't rack it again after you add the priming solution. I like to add the priming solution to the bottling bucket, then rack the beer into it. I usually have my bottles ready to go before doing that, but it wont' hurt the beer to let it sit for a little while while you finish getting the bottles ready.

I just wanted to let any heavy sediment I may have missed settle to the bottom after mixing in my sugar.

I would bottle withing a couple of hours at the most. The yeasties will start to munch on that sugar pretty quick.
