Sugar to carb

[Buick Beer Gardens]

Has anyone used powdered or confectioners sugar to carb?

It will work, but is harder to deal with than granulated. Whatever you chose to prime with, you should weigh the amounts for better accuracy than measuring volume.

I think confectioner’s sugar contains adjuncts to prevent clumping, like cornstarch or silicates. I’m sure it would carb beer, but might add more sludge to the bottles (“sludge” is like a scientific term, right?).

Oops, I forgot about those.
