Hello,
I usually use corn sugar for my bulk priming but I was wondering if it would be worthwhile to use Belgian rock candi instead for the Belgian Dubbel I'm doing? If you think it would be worthwhile what would be a good weight to use?
Thanks,
Jason

Re: Bulk priming question
You planned on disolving it down in hot water first???

Re: Bulk priming question
Those numbers are for bottling if I'm not mistaken, If you are bulk priming a keg, cut that number in half to ensure you don't over carb your beer.

Re: Bulk priming question
If it's clear sugar, I wouldn't waste the money. Use cane sugar.
