I made some ginger bug drinks last year but then got tired of feeding the bug along with other projects so I added a little AC vinegar then left it out to turn into a tasty ginger vinegar. This and being reminded of the switchel recipe has me thinking about starting a new bug!

Thanks, that was so refreshing. What's the difference if you boil the ginger before (i.e. make a ginger tea) before fermenting it with the bug. I know you didn't boil yours in this video but what's the difference in taste and nutritional profile in the fermented lemonade when compared to your ginger beer. Thanks.

Extra points for not leaving a lot of headspace. Too much space actually adds to possible bottle 🎉

I used frozen lemonade and frozen pink grapefruit juice, then slice strawberries or crush, for lemonade. I bet if carbonated, be even better. Take care.

en route!

Do prefer ginger bug soda or water kafir soda? I make yogurt and have seen whey soda as well! Wondering which you prefer??? I personally live kombucha too. I’ve been making it a while now- but for sure it takes longer to go from first ferment to complete bottle, even here in CA which lately it’s been taking about 7-10 first ferment, then 3 day second fermentation in bottle

do you need to burp the bottles during the second ferment?

Hahah I’m running out of ideas for ginger bug but I have a few more up my sleeve

Thanks for the recipe Trent. I gave this a try and had no issues getting the ginger bug fermenting, the issue I had was once I combined the lemonade and 100g of ginger bug, nothing has happened after 4 days and mold is now growing on some of the floating ginger pieces. Not one bubble has appeared on the surface of the lemonade. Has this happened to you?

@TheBruSho

2 жыл бұрын

Oh man no that has never happened to me. Sounds like the lemonade wasn’t acidic enough to keep mold at bay. I would say try it again and squeeze more lemons into the fermenter. Maybe you could add a little more ginger bug to help with the fermentation going off better. And make sure that container is well cleaned and sanitized

@ronmiller7248

I make mead so I'll chime in. The ginger pieces likely dried out, you should swirl the jug at least once a day maybe more for the 1st day or 2. Not vigorously, just a swirl to keep the ginger wet. Also give it a good shake when you first start to get things mixed properly. Ginger has wild yeast on it but I've made a few ginger meads without seeing mold but it depends on your climate I guess. And your airlock. And i would not put water in your airlock since knats can swim threw it so I'd use a lit of clear drinking alcohol or diluted sanitization fluid which will kill any bug that gets into that airlock liquid. And yes, sanitization is key. Sanitize everything that comes in contact with your brew or the ginger bug.

What’s the shelf life of the refrigerated finished bottles?

I made this a few days ago but mine wasn’t fuzzy at all. Not sure what I did wrong.

Mold growth after 3 days. Ideas where I went wrong?

I tried to do one recently using Food wishes' "State Fair" lemonade recipe as a base, but I think the pH was too low in that recipe to ferment. The oleo saccharum produced by steeping the lemon rinds in sugar adds a great flavor to the lemonade. I'll have to try again with less lemon juice.

@@thearkedcrown My version using mandarin rinds turned out well, but I couldn't get the lemonade version to ferment. Maybe I need to keep reducing the ratio of lemon juice till it kicks off. The mandarin recipe was pretty similar to the lemonade version, except I added some citric acid to make it more tart. It fermented well, tasted kinda like tang soda.

I just juice fruits and let the juice sit at room temperature for a few + days

Can you do more wild ferments please

What's the difference between Kombucha Scoby and Ginger Bug? could it be switched?

They are kind of different beasts. I would say kombucha is much more acidic to my taste buds where as ginger is more neutral but has a strong ginger flavor. But worth swapping to see how it comes out

How do you stop fermentation and keep the bottle from blowing up? Won't the yeast keep eating the sugar albeit slowly and continue to increase carbonation

@TheBruSho

Storing it cold goes a long way. And drinking it fresh too. But the alternative is to pasteurize. But again I recommend drinking it fresher rather than using pasteurization

You use a hydrometer to take an original gravity reading before fermentation and one after fermentation is done to see how strong it is (how much sugar has been fermented out). But I think it’s less than a percent if I had to guess.

You don't need airlock, it looks cool but it's completely not needed, much better to use a good airtight bottle, and no it's not going to explode and yes I'm french.
