Hello all,
I just bottled about a week ago a lager that has a high alcohol content, (8.6%) and i cracked a beer open to see how it was going and it had very little carbonation. I know that it should be in the bottle at least 2 weeks but it seemed like it was nearly flat. I’m using 500ml bottles with 2 carbonation candy drops. The bottles are stored in my garage at about 55 degrees. I read that high alcohol can kill off all your yeast and I’m wondering if i should dump the batch and re yeast it then rebottle it or just leave them alone?
Thanks for your help.
Prost!
