Hi all,
I misread the priming calculator and thought that you needed to enter the temperature of the beer at bottling, NOT the temperature of the fermentation. As I had lagered the beer (a Kolsch) it was very cold when I bottled it so my beers are very undercarbed. They are drinkable (just) but it's almost like a cask ale carbonation - a spritz on the tongue but no visible bubbles in the beer itself.
Is there anything I can do, or do I just have to chalk this up to experience?
Cheers
Dan
