Chimps Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 Hi all, [pouty] I dont want to be a pain with what is probably a real noobie question - will my brews turn out worse if I prime with ordinary white sugar (eg. CSR)? Or is it better to use Dextrose or some other type? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 not at all. i have primed with both sugar and dextrose and i dont notice any difference. Perhaps the dextrose forms a tighter head, but, i dont really care about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng12 Posted November 25, 2010 Share Posted November 25, 2010 I've had no problems with using just regular sugar or the carb drops going on near 100 brews now, the odd bottle now and again is flat as a tack but thats my fault adding no sugar at all. But there hasn't been many. I may have to give bulk priming a go soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
