While sugar can be used as a fermentable ingredient in Homebrewing, it is not recommended to replace dextrose entirely with sugar. Dextrose is a preferred choice due to its simpler sugar structure that yeast can easily ferment, resulting in a cleaner fermentation process without off-flavors. Sugar can be used in small amounts to adjust sweetness or boost alcohol content, but should not be the main source of fermentable sugars in beer brewing.

The way to carbonate Home brew to to do a Second Fermentation... The Second Fermentation process is where you firstly seperate the yeast sediment and the brew. After this you should place some more sugar into the brew (be carefull about the amount and what you use, follow the recipe because you don't want the bottle to blow up. After placing more sugar into the brew, bottle it and cap it and let it sit for 3 days. After that time you should place all the bottles into the fridge and they are ready to drink. One more important note, all the equipment used should be sterilized and clean. If you have any questions I'd recommend calling a home brew store.

No, you can keg it too. You use about 1/3 less priming sugar than you normally would, but you need to acquire kegs. Definitely worth it for the type of home brewer that makes a batch weekly.
