Brewing Ginger beer with a Ginger Beer Plant

[gin]

Hi,

I’ve been reading your ginger beer post. And wanted to add my bit of information.
I used to make a yeast ginger beer with sugar and ginger powder. I even managed to keep my starter “ ginger sludge “ alive for near a year until I up and put salt in my mixture, thinking I was feeding it sugar. After that I didn’t start another wild “ginger beer plantâ€Â
