can anyone tell me just how to add the priming sugar at bottleing time. do you dilute it with water or boil it and how do you mix it into you beer without reactivating the yeast.i know sounds stupid but being my first brew id like not to screw it up…thanks rob
Boil like 16oz of water and the priming sugar for 10 min to sanitize it. I add my sugar solution to the bottom of my bottling bucket then rack my beer on top of it, and that has always worked for me
+1 to above, but make sure that you stir well in addition to dumping on top of the sugar solution. BTW, you want it to activate the yeast, in the bottle, that is what carbonates it.
