Frequently asked questions
Can I use this for keg carbonation?
This is a bottle-priming estimate. Keg carbonation is usually controlled with pressure and temperature.
What if fermentation is not complete?
Do not package. Residual fermentable extract can cause excessive pressure and dangerous bottle failure.
