Priming sugar

Hi
Would just like to know does it matter which way you prime your bottles with sugar and which option gives the best results. Is it transfering my brew into a secondary adding the priming sugar to this, give it a stir then syphon into bottles or syphon brew from primary into bottles then add sugar to these individually.

Cheers

    The results are the same, some people like to use a second vessel if they have one available and mix the sugar into the whole batch, then fill the bottles from there - this is just to avoid having to add sugar to each individual bottle and they find it easier. Adding priming sugar to each bottle can be a bit fiddly and take a bit of time, but sometimes people use a funnel to help. The Carbonation Drops from Coopers are very handy and popular, simply because they pop in through the bottle of a neck with no mess;
