Date: Tue, 10 Apr 2012 10:43:35 -0500 From: Loren Blom <ljblom at iowatelecom.net> Subject: bottle conditioning Want to know how long it takes to carbonate with bottle conditioning? Replace a couple of your glass bottles with a couple of plastic soda pop bottles. Keep them at different temperatures and test them every day. Before carbonation, pinch them. They will be soft to the touch. As they carbonate, they will become harder. When the bottle is at least as hard as a soda, you are ready to go. You will find that the warmer the beer, the faster it carbonates. Loren Return to table of contents
