Beer w/ E-Z caps

Postby yahoo » Fri Mar 12, 2004 5:34 am

I want to try making a beer with e-z caps . The only problem I have
not come up with is how much priming sugar for Two 2 liter
bottles . Ideally I would make a gallon of beer and let it ferment
completely using a conventional fermentaion lock . Then siphon it
off into bottles with E-Z caps , add a weak sugar syrup and let it
carbonate for a week or so . I believe it is necessary to get the
beer of of the trub ( spent yeast and protien sedimement ) so it
does not get too bitter . Does anyone have any idea of how much
sugar to use in the syrup ? I usually use 5 ounces of corn sugar
dissolved in 8 ounces of water for a 5 gallon batch of beer then
bottle it in 12 ounce bottles . It would be much less for two
bottles . Look for a report on my results in a couple of weeks .
