Hi all, hope someone can help with this. I bottled a batch of St. Peters Golden ale about six weeks ago using carb drops and its still flat as a pancake. Ive been trying one every week and no joy whatsoever. I suspect that the problem is my cheapo second hand twin lever capper not capping propertly so Ill be investing in a new bench capper. I'd like to reprime the whole batch using honey, recap and leave for a few weeks but as its quite old already I was wondering whether it would work? Any advice appreciated, cheers
 
Get the bottles warmed up to 20c for a while, that will probably help them.
Edit:- normally 20c for couple weeks then you chill them down to condition.
