Carbonation Levels

[kugeman]

Does anyone know of a comprehensive list of dissolved CO2 levels in beer broken down by style? I carbonate most of my regular ales to 2.5-2.55 vol co2, but that isn't appropriate for every style. For instance, what's proper for an english barleywine, or a belgian trippel, or an alt? If there isn't a list out there, maybe we as a forum can create some guidelines?

just a thought...

cheers!

Hi, most of the recipes in the "Classic Beer Style Series" books list recommended Co2 volumes for the various styles. Some of the text also discusses carbonation , depending on the author. Happy reading!
