I'm trying to move towards no-transfer brewing which means cutting the bottling bucket out of the process. This means I have to add sugar to each and every bottle before racking in beer.
I found some 2.5g sugar cubes on Amazon which should work nicely for 12 oz bottles. However, if I have different size bottles or want more/less carbonation then this won't work as well.
So I've been thinking about dissolving carefully measured amounts of water and sugar together such that a simple measurement, such a teaspoon, would yield the exact amount of sugar per bottle. I could interpolate for odd-sized bottles. I would likely make more of mixture than required to ensure I don't run out.
Anyone do something like this with reasonable success? Tips?
