ginger beer

Hi LOL

you may find it was TOO hot for the yeast, and some of it may have been killed off.... as in my receipe, it says no higher than 21c .... do you have a wine cellar???? When I used to make wine, the temperature was very important for the yeast.... but I bet it still tasted really good!!! MMMMM!!!!!

 

Thanks HB and MF. No, I don't have a wine celler but we have a pantry where we store wine ... in the dining part of the kithen where my computer is! Perhaps that's a better place for it.

I had extra ginger in this go, MF, but like you think it will be double portion next time to give it a real kick! :D

So, until next tasting .... :rolleyes:

 

I bet artful-dodger has just been back to the shop for hers

nice one :D :D :D :D

 

Well done, MF! You're ahead of me I'm afraid as with this and that going on here I haven't started my second batch. :( I will hopefully get this done by the weekend and follow your example.

I'll be back in touch.

 

well done marley farley, c,mon lady of leisure you can do it

 

Just made up my second batch of ginger beer, folk ... about time, do I hear you say?

Like you, MF, I used 3/4 cup of sugar and upped the amount of ginger, didn't measure, a big heap of it! :D :D I find it easier just poking the ginger in the bottle! :eek:

Have it sitting on the kitchen counter this time so, fingers crossed and I'll come back to you Thursday with the verdict! :rolleyes:

 

Just sampling my second-attempt ginger beer and it's far better than the first! Saude!

 

well done LoL better late than never, I bet artful-dodger hasnt made it yet
