Yeah I was checking them periodically like I said. The carbonation felt a little weird but like you stated, 3 weeks should have been plenty.
One thing to consider though... my pint bottles seemed slightly more carbonated than my bombers. Coincidence?
No I definitely used just under 5oz. I did sound uncertain in that post, sorry. I remember weighing out to about 4.75oz of dextrose. I fermented for 2 weeks in primary (i don't usually use a secondary) and bottle conditioned for 3 at around 70 degrees. Then they went to the fridge to sit about 2...
Well after much deliberation I decided I under-carbed this one pretty good. Couple that with my OG of 1.065 and I got a very boozy ale. I really think my perle and London ale yeast substitutions have given this beer a truly peculiar character. I think I used just shy of 5 oz of corn sugar for a...

New to the forums. I'm going to try your recipe this weekend for my 2nd ever AG brew. However, due to availabilty, I will have to substitute Perle for Challenger and WLP013 for the Danstar Windsor. Curious how this may alter the overall character of this beer. I also plan on using a Belgian...
