beer hasnt carbonated

[Jon112]

I made a winter beer that has aged in the secondary for roughly 3-4 weeks. I bottled it about a week and a half ago. I tried one beer and there was NO carbonation, and ZERO Head to the beer. I have never had this issue and there should be carbonation after this amount of time.

I guess I will have to let it sit for longer, but any ideas as to how to fix it and what could have gone wrong.

I added 3/4 a cup of corn sugar and racked beer on top of it prior to bottling

ideas?

At least 3 weeks at 70 degrees for average beers. Revvy will be here any second...

I figure it needs more time, just was looking for a second opinion.

20-21 degrees C will be a good temperature for bottle carbonation. I know some breweries do it at 15-16 degrees C for a month or longer. Warmer temperatures are what ale yeast likes. Generally bottle condition at the same temperature as fermentation for ales.

You'll get 2nd through 150th. All the same. RDWHAHB.

10 days is not enough time.
