Corn Sugar (Premium Dextrose) 5oz Pack For Priming 5gal of beer
Applications for Your Beverage
For Beer Brewers
1. Priming & Bottle Conditioning
Dextrose is the classic choice for "priming," or creating natural carbonation in the bottle or keg. We recommend it because it's easy for the yeast to consume and has a perfectly neutral flavor, leaving your beer tasting exactly as you designed it.
-
Standard Use: Use 4-5 oz. of dextrose to prime 5 gallons of beer.
-
Sanitary Prep: Dissolve the sugar in 1-1.5 pints of water and boil for 5 minutes to sanitize before gently mixing it with your beer.
2. Gravity & ABV Boosting
Need to hit your Original Gravity (OG) target without affecting flavor? Dextrose is the solution.
-
Clean Addition: Adds fermentable sugars without increasing body, color, or adding the "cidery" taste associated with other sugars.
-
Yield: Adds 1.042 points per pound per gallon (PPG) to your specific gravity.
