Is there a way to cheaply re-carbonate a stale beer?

Asked by Kraigmo (9421points) September 22nd, 2009

Is there some way, or some chemical that can be made into tablet form, and used to re-carbonate flat beer?

Sometimes I like to drink half a can instead a full can. There should be some tablet I can add to re-fizzify my beer if I save it. I know a CO2 tank might work, but I want a tablet-based solution.

Yeast + sugar, then re-cap it.

Buy it it bottles and use an airtight sealer.

The thought of what you’re proposing makes me a little queasy. @DarkScribe has the best solution – canned beer (except for Guiness) is swill to begin with.
