Priming Sugar

Carbonate your homebrew with Priming Sugar (Dextrose), a clean, neutral fermentable designed to create consistent carbonation without affecting flavor or aroma. Ideal for beer and hard cider, this easy-to-use sugar dissolves quickly and delivers reliable bottle conditioning results batch after batch.

Priming Sugar is used at bottling to feed yeast just enough fermentable sugar to naturally carbonate your finished brew. Because dextrose ferments cleanly and completely, it produces crisp carbonation without adding sweetness, color, or off-flavors.

This food-grade corn sugar is measured for convenience based on batch size. Use 1 oz for a standard 1-gallon batch or 5 oz for a full 5-gallon batch or multiple small brews. It works equally well for beer, cider, and other bottle-conditioned beverages.

For best results, dissolve the sugar fully in hot water, cool, and gently mix into your beer before bottling to ensure even carbonation. Always sanitize all equipment used during the process.

Priming Sugar (Dextrose) is widely used by homebrewers for dependable carbonation control, making it a simple and effective choice for achieving clean, professional-quality fizz at home.
