750 ml bottle's

[dablyth]

I've been given a load of 750ml glass bottles, how much sugar do I need to put into each bottle when priming , I'm still learning , I have bulldog English ale syrup that brewing now .
Sorry for the noob questions.

I presume these are actual beer bottles and not some kind of wine bottle? I only ask as wine bottles won't take the pressure.

You can multiply up the priming sugar i.e. if you put a teaspoon in a 500ml bottle then 1.5 for a 750ml bottle.

Do you have a bottling bucket? By far the best method is to batch prime the beer and then bottle it - gets the carbonation nice and even and also the bottle size doesn't matter then. You can even use a mix of bottle sizes.

I'm using 750 glass bottle that had sparking water in, they do look like wine bottles, guess this is no good lol

No bottling bucket, just a cooper diy kit, but I've already used the bottles supplied with the kit, and I want to get another brew on, this is all new to me , any info would be much appreciated

Do the bottles you have take a screw cap or a crimp on beer bottle cap ?

If they have a screw top not sure they will hold pressure, if they take a crimped on beer bottle cap or a grolsch style levered on rubber bunged affair then they should be fine - pressure wise, although.........

500ml bottles work much better than larger bottles in my experience due to the sediment in the bottom of homebrew bottles.

With 500ml you can pour a pint in one go and leave the sediment behind. I have used 660ml bottles (bigger budweiser and cobra bottles etc) and although they work you pour a pint then the remaining beer in the bottle glugs back and disturbs the sediment, you need to pour a pint and 1/3rd in one go to avoid the sediment - decanting 750ml into a glass jug in one go would work ok.

Not the end of the world if you are starting out but 500ml bottles, or 300ml bottles work better imho,
