for ales, aim for about 8g/L.. so for a longneck, put in 6g approx..

your best bet is to get a scoop from the home brew shop that can measure the right amount of sugar needed for longnecks and stubbies... If you dont have one, and you have digital scales, you might be able to find a spoon or something in the kitchen that could hold approximately 6g or 3g (do two scoops)...

see how you go....
