I always use beer kits and have always bulk primed my brews instead of applying a small amount of sugar to each bottle. I have accumulated a collection of 500ml bottles which I use. My local brewing guru is no longer available but in the beginning he gave me a table of the amount of sugar to use for a range of specific gravity. Typically, I would use about 140grams for my 22 - 23 litres of an English Bitter/Ale. I now believe that this may be a bit high as this type of beer is not as highly carbonated as others.
I am trying (for the first time) a Muntons 'Old English Bitter' brew kit. Is it still OK to bulk prime? and how much sugar (white cane sugar is OK, yes?) should I use?
I look forward to any suggestions.
Thanks,
