Hi all,
Im having a bit of an issue with making fizzy beer.
This is my 2nd batch, the 1st went very successfully, I was able to brew a very tasty beer, tho it did taste very yeasty.
So my plan with the 2nd one was to eliminate the yeast flavour.
The issue seems to be that I cant get very much carbonation, My 1st batch of beer was put in a large pressure vessel, this time I have chosen to put the beer in individual bottles, Sadly now whenever I open a bottle there is very little carbonation.
So I am wondering where did I go wrong?
What are the variables involved in producing a carbonated beer?
I know temperature is a big one, as well as sugar content, but both have been followed to the letter.
Has anyone else experienced this before if so. how did you rectify it?
This there any hope for the beer thats already bottled? Can I artificially carbonate them? Using something like a soda stream or tiny piece of dry ice?
Thanks for any help provided.
