Carbonating my beer for bottling tonight...

Post by BiersalBrewery » Wed Feb 06, 2019 2:39 pm

the only thing I don't know is how much water to use. I'm using Brewer's friend app for priming sugar calculator I know I want 2.5 volume of CO2 per bottle and I'm using 3.3 Oz of corn sugar but no websites that have calculators say how much water to use.

I sometimes pull enough beer from the fermenter and boil it with 150-190 grams of dextrose for a couple minutes and re add it to the fermenter and gently stir it...dry malt extract works as well.
