Adding corn sugar

I add 1 cup of corn sugar to simply beer stout-it makes it a little sweeter to taste.

Using this sugar you can bottle condition your beer, or add some to a keg to naturally carb it.

I like to use this rather than tablets, seems to give a more even carbonation. Plus I can add more ore less to get more or less carbonation. Control is king.

Corn sugar is cheap and reliable. Either using in the recipe as an extra ingredient to boost the ABV without affecting the the flavor of the beer much or to carbonate your beer. Either way you can't go wrong. I will always keep extra corn sugar on hand._x000D_

This is corn sugar as advertised. It works just as corn sugar should. What is nice about this particular sugar is that it is much cheaper than at least my local LHBS. The ability to buy in fifty pound bags is also nice for those of you who don't want to make trip after trip after trip to the store.

better than table sugar

There is a reason corn sugar comes with all the beer kits. Table sugar adds a slight taste. It seems to me that beers that I prime with table sugar have a detectable taste that I dislike, so I no longer use it, only corn sugar. I bought a 4 pound bag that lasts me 2 years.

Best for priming.

Corn sugar is best for bottle priming and is great on it's own for that reason but in small percentages can increase your alcohol, add little flavor, and lighten body. These traits are valuable for several styles and at a great price I buy this in larger quantities.

Better than table sugar.

Dextrose (corn sugar) doesn't leave the cidery flavor that table sugar does. With the prices for dextrose potentially going up this year, it's a good idea to have some of this on hand._x000D__x000D_You can't beat it for bottle carbing, and keg carbing with dextrose isn't bad either.

Great primer!

I used the 5 oz priming sugar for every beer recipe I make! It has never failed me thus far. It even extends to fermenting specific to the type of beer you are making. It carbonated a Kolsch to a higher level which was desirable, while carbonating a Hefeweizen to a slightly slower level. I don't know how, but it seems to have a mind of its own and a smart one at that! I'm going to start buying in bulk!

Can't beat Corn Sugar...

When it comes to bottling home brew, you simply can't beat good Corn Sugar for good carbonation. I've had excellent results with this priming sugar through Midwest, and very seldom have to bottle condition for the recommended time. Dissolves fast in hot water, mixes well, and carbonates reliably well. Cheers!
