Hi All
im still new to home brewing, only been doing it a few months & loving it.
I usually use cabonation drops to prime the bottles. on the weekend when i was bottling I ran out of the drops. So I used sugar for the remaing bottles in the batch. I was doing a batch in 375ml bottles, I put a teaspoon in each bottle. yesterday when i was doing a bit of reading i learnt that im only ment to put 1/2 a teaspoon in each bottle, I basicly got the measurements mixed up.
so I took the lids of all the bottles and put them back in the heat box. After thinking a little last night about this i thought i may be able to leave the lids off for a week then let the sugar in there ferment out then re prime them with the correct amount, would any one recommend this? or have a ruined them?
any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Michael
