Brewing Beer

Topic: Malt Extract
I bottled the last 2 jars of malt beer. It seemed kinda flat, so I added about an ounce of sugar syrup I had made to each bottle. (1 part water to 2 parts sugar; boiled for 5 minutes, cool.) More sediment had settled to the bottom of the jars and didn't get stirred up when I poured it out, so perhaps that would be a better way to go about it to get a clearer end product -- let it get flat in the fermentation jar and the dregs have all settled to the bottom, then add sugar to the bottles to be plugged up. I labelled each bottled with the method used to make it, and I'll compare the different methods when I drink it and then make up a recipe based on the results for the next batch.
