How do you add dextrose to beer?
Procedure
- Measure the required quantity of priming sugar as determined from Table 1 (we assume here that you are using dextrose).
- Add to saucepan with only enough water to dissolve it (say, 200 mL).
- Bring to boil for a minute or two.
- Add to beer a few minutes prior to bottling and gently stir to distribute evenly.
Does dextrose add body to beer?
Re: Adding body to a beer
The yeast do not ferment the dextrose and the dextrose will add body and mouth feel to the beer. For a typical 5 gallon batch you may want to consider adding 8 oz of dextrose.
