Hi all,
Bottled my first extract ale 2 weeks ago following Beersmith 2 carbonation guide. Diluted the sugar and added to a bottling bucket and bottled from there using grolsch bottles. The last bottle was only 3/4 full so I opened that after a week and it went off like a champagne bottle, thick creamy head right to the end. Now a week later every bottle I've tried is quite flat - still tastes great but I can't understand what has happened to the carbonation. Has anyone got any ideas?
