I need help and hopefully someone out there has done this...
I need to get some competition entries in ASAP (by tomorrow) and I chilled the beer in a 1L bottle last night (its around 40 degrees) along with a carbonator cap on at 8psi. I did shake it for about 4-5mins last night and it's been sitting in the fridge ever since at 8psi. I need 2.0 Vols and plan on slowly pouring into two seperate bottles as entries. Is there anything that I can do to make sure it's carbonated enough? The timing issue was not up to me....I was somewhat rushed because I was told the competition was filled and then they notified me a week later that I could send something in...well that one week absolutely killed me for bottle carbing...so I had to resort to this. Please if anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
