Hi all
I primed my last batch with priming drops, so I'm fairly sure I've dosed correctly (in fact if anything, pretty heavily - 2x prime drops per 500ml bottle - a chocolate IPA). They went into my brew fridge at 20ðC post bottling for 2 weeks, but I noticed some of the bottles at the back of the fridge were a little cold. I'm thinking poor heat distribution in the fridge when its packed with bottles. Anyway, I've now chilled them all for a week now (2ðC conditioning), just took one of the suspect ones out to try it and its pretty flat.
Could I reheat them all to 20C for another week or so and then go back to the 2ðC conditioning? Would this help or is it too late?
I'm sure this will have been posted elsewhere, or similar sorry, did look but I cant find anything that specifically suggests its worth "reheating" after a week of cool conditioning.
