Re: Real Ginger Beer Plant

You might try yahoo groups. There are a lot of people on there on your side of the map, if you think it is hard where you are, you should try living in the US and finding someone that has the real stuff. Most people here don't even know what ginger beer is. It helps if you offer shipping costs or a ...

Re: Real Ginger Beer Plant

What is the best way to add minerals to your water to help the plant grow AND how do you store the extra GBP?

Thanks,

Re: Looking for real GBP to start my own brew

Well you can make it this way, and I have and it tastes ok, but in researching it, there is an old fashioned way and according to some, the "only way". According to these, you have to acquire the gingerbeer plant, it isn't something you can make. But I think I have acquired some of the rea...

Re: Does anybody know how to make cream

Wow! Are you not able to buy heavy cream or whipping cream at the grocery store? I would have never guessed that cream wouldn't be available most places, barring third world countries. I have turned heavy cream into butter by putting it in the mixer on low for about 20 minutes, can you do the revers...

Re: Hello from Knoxville, Tennessee, USA

Oh if I had had to wait on my husband to build me an outdoor oven, I wouldn't have one. I bought a book on how to make your own mud oven and went from there. Fortunately I did this before my kids hit the teens and was excited about helping. All the materials are pretty much free, so it cost very lit...

Re: 101 uses for cockroaches

Minnesota, Be glad you don't have them. Have you never been to Florida? You wouldn't be bummed then! I lived there and had someone spray on a monthly basis and never got rid of them. I could hear them in the middle of the night running up the cabinet doors. We would be watching tv at night and the f...

Re: ...grow mushrooms

It's funny to see that people from other countries use the same slang as you do in your own country. I was surprised to see the word "flippin" used as we do in the US or at least in my area of the country. :flower: I think mushrooms are very hard to grow. Someone local here sells "mus...

Hello from Knoxville, Tennessee, USA

Hello to everyone, I found this website in search for, how to brew real ginger beer. We do live in the city limits, however, have a small plot of land and garden starting every spring and some of our milder winters allow us to garden cooler crops. I would love to have some chickens but haven't gone ...
