What he hell!
Im on my 20 something batch now and bottle carbonization has always been iffy for me. Total hit and miss.
Here are the facts
1) I always do a first and second ferment.
2) In this case i have 22 ounce bottles with a medium body IPA with two carb pills. (yes I know... in this case it needed to be pills)
3) Bottle conditioning ran cooler than I wanted, under 70 for 2 weeks
Result after 2 weeks NO carb!!!!!
1) I rocked the bottles
2)placed them in a 72 degree environment for 1 week
3) Placed a test bottle in the fridge for 2 days
No Carb WTF!
Should I pour the bottles into a keg and force carb???
Words of wisdom welcome!
