Hello all,
This is my first post here, so prepare for a newbie question...
I am on my second batch of Woodfordes Norfolk Wherry, which I heard was a good and easy first brew. I have been quite pleased with both batches in terms of taste (and isn't that the main thing?)
But the first one went flat with about a third of the keg left and despite a spritz from a CO2 capsule.
The second batch has been secondary fermenting in the keg for two weeks now and, while it's not totally clear, it tasted good enough for me to pull a couple of pints this weekend. Unfortunately after an early spurt, by the end of the second pint the pressure had disappeared completely and it only glugged slowly out of the tap. Can it really be that so little CO2 has been generated? Or is it supposed to be a totally flat bitter? I am not a fussy man, but I do like a little bit of fizz in my beer. But maybe this is normal? Thanks for any suggestions.
