Priming Sugar Calculator

Figure out exactly how much priming sugar to use for bottle or keg conditioning, accounting for beer temperature, target carbonation, and the type of sugar used.

Batch Information

(?)Use the warmest temperature your beer reached during active fermentation, not your current fridge, cold-crash, or packaging temperature. Colder beer holds more dissolved CO2, and that residual amount is locked in at whatever the warmest point was, not wherever it sits now.
2.2 to 2.7 vol is standard

Residual CO2
CO2 Still Needed
Residual CO2 formula per the standard homebrew implementation of the Zahm & Nagel solubility data. Dextrose, sucrose, DME, and honey factors per common published homebrew references (Palmer's How to Brew among them). LME, maple syrup, turbinado, and brown sugar factors are derived from typical composition data (water/solids content relative to sucrose or DME) rather than a single directly-published source.  ·  brulosophy.com
