I've just finished my second kit brew, I made a Edme super brew lager, I used 500 g of dextrose and 500 g of light spray malt. I left it for 7 days until I got a FG of 1008 giving approximate 4.7 %.
This was then put into Coopers 500 ml PET bottles and I added 1 coopers priming sugar tablet to each.
After 7 days it had cleared so I thought I'd give it a taste. Must say it tasted really good, surprisingly clean and hoppy, however there is almost no head, this really detracts from the experiance. Do you think it will develop some fizz in time or have I just scuppered a whole batch by not adding enough sugar?
If not enough sugar is the issue, could I open each bottle and re-prime them? It would be a pain but better than tossing out all that beer. Help !
