Give this a burl mate: http://webspace.webring.com/people/ms/sirl...Calculator.htmlI am planning bottling tonight (Coopers 740ml PET), usually use two Coopers carb drops per bottle.
Am certain I don't have enough drops for the 30 bottles, but I can't get to a shop today and unlikely to get to one for the next week or so due to work.
Any advice/theories on how much dextrose per 740ml bottle would do the trick? Or how much sugar per bottle?
Cheers
I did it recently when using carb drops for priming my bottles, but I had some 500ml ones so used the above to measure some dextrose in there rather than trying to cut the drops up.
If you set the desired volume of CO2 at 3, at 20 degrees C for a 740ml bottle using dextrose, it comes out to 6.36gm per bottle. A teaspoon is a touch over 4 grams, so looks like a teaspoon and a half per bottle.
