Doing the kit as in the title and going to bottle today. I'm going to transfer to another bucket and batch prime before bottling. I brewed short to 21 litres and will probably lose a bit more in transfer so I guess about 20 litres in total.

How much table sugar should I use? I was thinking about 140g.

I've previously done a Youngs American IPA which came with it's own priming sugar and it seemed about the right amount for a good fizz. Does anyone know exactly how much is included in those kits?

Edit - Already done - used 140g. Fingers crossed.

Massively late on this thread but for anyone else who may search and read I just batch primed the Young’s APA with the priming sugar that came with it. I weighed it before putting it in and it 104g, it’s only been in the bottle a week but the carbonation so far isn’t great... may just need time.
I did a wilkos kit before that at 120g which has come out nicely.
I’m now about to bottle a Cwtch which says 85g max! Seems a bit low ...
