How do you determine how many gravity points you need to add to your beer to prime to a certain carbonation level? |
do you have any software? I’d recommend getting beersmith... Also, sounds like you bottled way to soon on the other beer. |
Here is an online calc: http://www.tastybrew.com/calculators/priming.html |
my understanding is that each point of gravity is 0.5 VOC, and if you have still beer you can assume there is already 1 VOC |
most bottles (12 or 22oz) are rated at 3 VOC but can handle about 3.8 (or more) as a safety that isn’t advertised. |
Originally posted by DA +1 I’ve never cared about the effect on gravity, only the ratio of the weight of the sugar or DME to gallons of beer. I guess you could do it as a gravity calculation, but that feels like overthinking the problem. And those numbers are ounces by weight, not volume. |
