Re: Real Ginger Beer Plant

Do you know what, I am not going to give any examples, Funny that. :lol: because if anyone clicked onto your 10 posts over the last 6 years, they are quite rude and angry, More unsupported nonsense from you diggernotdreamer.

Re: Real Ginger Beer Plant

"a lot" didn't appear anywhere in my post. Dry humour is absolutely fine, I haven't found any in your post. I suggest you go back and read our rules on behaviour. Thus far you're not exhibiting even a rudimentary understanding of "be nice". Wouldn't it be 'nice' to teach by exam...

I think, if you look again through the previous posts, that those seeking THE ginger bug only contribute once or twice on Ish and then disappear.
Most of us merely want to make ginger beer, to drink.

Re: Real Ginger Beer Plant

I've been reading all of your posts about making a Ginger Beer Plant from scratch. First of all I just want to state the obvious. What do you mean by 'from scratch'? You surely don't mean from atoms, amino acids, or from DNA. We're talking about propagating something that you can find at random on o...

Re: Real Ginger Beer Plant

Firstly, it can't be impossible to make a ginger beer plant or there would be no such thing. Someone must have made one somehow. You can buy it online from that gingerbeerplant.net site but it is outrageously priced and the kefir sites have their own culture that is similarly extortionate. Many peo...

Re: Swedish fermented Vegetables info needed

It is and you do, but if you are actively making viniger as well, then you are tempting fate if you keep the two near, doubly so if you use the same kit for both.

Re: Swedish fermented Vegetables info needed

Just keep it as far away from any brewing gear as possible, you don't want acetobacter anywhere near homebrew (unless making viniger) Acetobacter aceti are everywhere, anyway, if you're a brewer then you always have to take precautions against Acetobacter aceti as a matter of course. Don't you?

Re: Swedish fermented Vegetables info needed

... Pickling in vinegar isn't an option as I don't do malt vinegar due to any gluten content. You should really try making your own vinegar if you like vinegar that is, it is as easy as falling off a log, and if you brew your own alcohol, cheap as chips. Anyway, if you fancy a go, get some starter ...

Re: Real Ginger Beer Plant

The only true Ginger Beer Plant is available here http://gingerbeerplant.net/GetGBP.html they got theirs via the German Culture bank. Kefir shop uk say on that their culture isn't a GBP but WKG merely fed ginger, which is a bit like saying if you eat grass you'll turn into a cow. :-) The other 'cult...
