gracedpalmerI've been doing Science! in the kitchen again. Yesterday I made some simple ginger beer based on this recipe and matociquala's efforts. Mine differs in that it has about 3 tablespoons ginger in it, which I cooked in water before adding to the bottle, and it is dark brown, since I have a lot of brown sugar to use up. The result is...bitey. There's a vague fermentation smell to it, but the taste is much like strong ginger beer in the glass bottles. Not very carbonated, probably due to my kitchen being cool, but tasty nevertheless. And no explosions!
Now, what else can I ferment?
