Until I get the Corny Keg and Kegerator built, I have a Wilkos Ceveza kit on the go, its been that long since I have put any into my pressure barrel I have forgot what to do, so do I still add the extra suger and screw on the CO2 Bulb or just the Bulb?
 
Add the sugar when racking to the PB. Sugar first.

Leave somewhere around 20degC for 2 weeks to carbonate before storing it cooler to condition. The sugar added to the PB will give you fizz. I find that there's enough pressure to serve over half a PB before needing to top up pressure using co2 from a bulb.

Thanks for that Cushyno, its not ready yet just getting myself organised for once so can sort it now, leaving it to condition properly has always been my vice lol, be better once I get onto the Corny Kegs and build my Kegerator, will make sure we always have some on the go, then will have a go at All Grain, plenty to keep me entertained while working from home 4 days until this madness ends
