how much priming

Post by DRB » Sat Nov 01, 2008 4:28 pm

I am about to bottle my old peculiar clone tonight, would you use molasses cane sugar or treacle to prime with if so how much should I use. Usually I prime with brewing sugar and use say 50 grams per 15 Lt.

I have never used treacle to prime, but the molases cane sugar I have and I tend use the same amount as I would normal sugar(and yes I am aware it is not as fermentable). But then again I tend like my bottled ale only slightly sparkling.
