how much sugar ended up per bottle? my book says 6.5g/l for a light lager during secondary. also what are your temps?

That’s about it, 6 g/l. I ferment in my garage and the highest it went in primary was close to 20 degrees, just before it was done (nice coincidence that it did a diacetyl rest that way). When bottling last Tuesday, it was more like 10, and it’s somewhere in that ballpark since then, warming up slightly the last few days.

my guess then it just needs more time. as another commenter said it, likely around two weeks, perhaps 3?

That’s valuable information. Thanks!
