Quick question on bottling and times etc

[niwomb]

Hi,

I'm moving on from extract brewing to all grain and i'm about to start my first batch but have a quick question on fermentation times and priming sugar etc.

If i do a simple recipe like this one http://www.tastybrew.com/newrcp/detail/519

How do i know how much priming sugar is standard for bottling and how am i supposed to figure what time to leave it bottled? Its prob a stupid question but i just want to have all my basis covered, cheers

Just go with your usual methods, using 2/3 cup of corn sugar and bottle as normal and you should be just fine.

Cheers and Enjoy

I think it answers most of your question.
As for the time, it usually takes about 3 weeks to carbonate.

P.S. Be aware that American volume measurements such as cups and gallons are different to the European counterparts.
