No fizz!!

Post by Shoit » Sat Nov 29, 2008 10:05 pm

Just cracked a bottle of fixby gold which has been conditioning in the bottle for a week and a half. The beer tastes good but has no fizz. I primed with spraymalt as i've done before. The only thing i changed this time was I left the wort in the fv for 11 days before bottling. Any other ideas what I may have done wrong?

Did it have enough time primary conditioning? It should have 5-7 days in the same temp as it was brewed at before going to cool, not too cold, conditioning. I get about the same fizz from spaymalt as I do sugar so that shouldnt be the problem. With these cold nights if its been cold conditioning outside it might be too cold, I`ve just brought 36 bottles in from the garage to a cool room in case its too cold outside.
