One more question on priming

Recommended Posts

I realized today that the Coopers carb drops can be split pretty evenly with a good quality knife.

 

I'm using 600 ML bottles. One drop is too little, 2 is too much. You guys think I'd be fine with 1.5 per 600ML?

 

And if not, my plan is as follows:

 

-sanitize each bottle with a shot of StarSan

-let them drip dry on a bottle tree

-prime each bottle with dextrose

-fill

-cap

-wait

-Enjoy!!

 

 

Thanks again for all the help so far!

One more thing...it's a Brown Ale. According to the Priming Calculator, the level of carbonation would require up to 3.34 grams of priming sugar for a 600 ML bottle. Based on that, maybe one carb tab would be ok? Aren't they 3 Grams each?

No idea of the weight sorry.

 

I would bulk prime. Then it won't matter what size bottles you are using. Your alternate method will be fine also. i.e. Prime with Dex. Even though normal table sugar would also work just as well.
