One thing I forgot to mention is that once your beer is bottled you want to let it sit for 2 weeks at room temperature in order to let the beer carbonate. Do not bottle your beer and then put them directly into the fridge, they will never carbonate. If after 2 weeks your beer still isn't properly carbonated, let them sit for another week.
My advice... Spend the extra few dollars and get the bottling wand with the spring inside! Trust me, the couple bucks you save cannot compare to the value of the sadness you will feel loosing several bottles worth of beer to the floor.
I'm trying to make a sort of home brew guinness at home but with carbonation drops. I don't currently have nitro. How many drops should I add in a 750ml bootle or should I just leave it flat?
It's not possible to get the Guiness head without nitro. I would probably do 1 carbonation drop per 750ml bottle instead of 2 so that it isn't as carbonated as a normal North American beer. Cheers

Exactly, the one in the video had the spring but I forgot to mention it. Cheers!
