Increase it a bit for lagers. I know some people are a lot more scientific with different priming amounts for different beers, but this works for me.

It will tell you what the Priming Sugar rate is "normal" for the different beers. Personally, I don't like a "gassy" beer so I always prime at a lower rate than suggested. Enjoy. :thumb:
