Carbonating the whole batch

Post by gibbiem » Tue Feb 11, 2014 6:11 pm

So instead of adding just under a teaspoon of sugar to each bottle can I add the sugar to the bottling vessel then just bottle straight away? Thanks

Cool. So just calculate the amount if sugar per litre and pour it in? Do I need to give it a good mix or anything?

Yes.

Edit: don't slosh about as you'll oxidise your beer
