We made a 14% ABV ginger beer on 04/29 and let it ferment for exactly 2 months. We spiced it with cinnamon, allspice berries, cloves, peppercorns, and a habanero. Turned out amazing.
Thanks for the recipe, it’s awesome. I do like mine stronger so I modified mine a little. 40 g of ginger before the simmering and extra 10g (50g total) just after the pot leaves the stovetop to slowly cool down(IPA dry hop style😂). I also add the juice from a small lemon or half a large one with the second batch. You get a whole range of ginger flavour, full yet citrusy and spicy. The store bought stuff doesn’t stand a chance.
Hey headsup, everyone: can vouch, this is the perfect ratio for 1 litre of ginger beer. If you want to use up all of the ginger bug, 1 cup / 250 ml is more than enough for 4 litres of ginger beer. Thanks for putting measurements in both metric and imperial (is that what they're called? Not sure, we haven't used those in decades lol). Don't forget to burp the bottle(s). ps Cute doggo!
Just finished my first batch of Ginger beer and WOW. So good. I changed your recipe up a bit and used honey instead of sugar. Its so good and it was insanely easy. My son and I are going to do a rootbeer with the ginger bug and then a blueberry soda with my daughter with it. Thanks for the great videos.
My mum used to make the best ginger beer..She used to put 2 sultanas in it before sealing they would go to the bottom..and we had to wait until the sultanas came to the top of the bottle and this told us all it was ready..And then we would fight over the juicy swollen tasty fruit..I hope this is of help to know when ready to drink.😂
Thanks Trent for this video! After numerous attempts in the past, I followed your recipe as closest possible and was successful, not to mention the best batch of Ginger beer I've ever tasted. Keep up the amazing work!
My Gran made this all the time, She had no "fancy" jars or bottles though, we are lucky now! Thank you so much for posting. I was not sure of quantities!! Delicious & so good for you.
The production quality on your videos is incredible, even more so considering your number of (current) subs. You’re going to get big. Great quality content, thank you for sharing!
I've been doing sourdough bread, and can see the similarities to the "starter" you made with the ginger. I'm stopping at the supermarket tomorrow to get some ginger. Saved this page, liked, and subscribed
I make my ginger beer with dried yeast and add sugar for 5% alc. I ferment it in a fermenting jar and after sugar is used up I put it in bottles and add 6g/L for carbonation :) I use 60g ginger per Liter so it gets very spicy :D I also add lemon Juice for better Taste and erythrose for some sweet taste (wont get fermented by the yeast)
Thanks, a no nonsense, get to the point video. I am on to it. I had to buy some decent bottles so I bought 2 dozen Grolsch Pilsner beer. Same price for the bottles but got the beer thrown in. I am in Mexico and some items are hard to find.
It took the bug longer to get bubbly fizzy, but its now constantly bubbling and de gasing now. I just have my first liter and i burped it (although not necessary) now and i think its working ! My toxic trait is that i think i can move on to Sake 😂😂
Hi! My ginger bug stop bubblin after the third day..and no foam on top..is it working normally or i have to restart? And...to keep going the bug...when should i refill water? Theres a kind of ratio depending the amount of old ginger already in jar?
Great video. I seen people talking about making a ginger bug but non mention how to store it. Glad you covered that part. I figured it would be fine in the fridge since I do this with my sourdough starter, but wanted to make sure. Thanks.
Bro, I'm so glad I found your channel. I recently won an old The Beer Machine kit (never used or opened) from an auction and was needing to find a UA-cam channel for homebrewing so I can find a place of knowledge. I've watched 5 videos so far and I think I found my new knowledge bank. Love the channel and am definitely now subscribed!
Hello, I made the ginger bug following this recipe. The bug has bubbles but I want to know is it normal for the bug to have jelly like consistency or did I screw up somehow? Thank you
Awesome video - you makes it seem so simple. I love ginger beer so definitely will try. I've already gone ahead and purchased 6 fermentation bottles at 500ml each = 3 litres. Dumb question but for the secondary process if I do 3 litres of water do I simply scale up? Also thanks for using the units of measurement that you use - makes it real simple. Thanks.
I make sooooo may fermented foods and beverages and my brother just got me a ton of organic ginger. I love ginger ale so I am gonna make this indefinitely
I do have a favorite cocktail that uses ginger beer: a Dirty Shirly. 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, 1 ounce of home made grenadine, 1 ounce of London dry gin and top the glass with about 5 oz of ginger beer. Stir and enjoy!
It happens. It's not a problem. Continue feeding with ginger, sugar - optional (taste, if it is sweet, you can skip the sugar). This is a period of calm. Sooner or later, after a few days, the ginger bug will come to life and bubbles will appear. Or it will spoil, but it will be clear by the smell. In this case, just install a new one and it won’t work for now)
New subscriber here (wanted to use my pineapple skins so came from the Tepache vid). My favourite cocktail with ginger beer is the same as yours. I love a good Moscow Mule (extra kick with alcoholic ginger beer). I love your additions. Will have to try the cider.
Thanks for subscribing, glad you found me! Cider is a great jumping off point to get into more fermentations, super easy to make and it sounds like you already got some base fermenting knowledge
What microbe do I need exactly for the fermentation? I tried the way to make ginger beer as you advised in this video. The ginger bug didn't want to be foamy. I made a second try, I put a piece of cabagge to the bug from my homemade kimchi. It worked well. After 3 days I put 50ml of ginger bug to the boiled ginger juice as you mentioned. The result was tasty but it wasn't full of bubbies, it wasn't gasy at all. There was no pressure in it. At my third attemption I used brewer's yeast. It worked well in the ginger bug, it made a lot of gas. But, when I poured it in to the sterilized ginger juice, I experienced an interesting process: After two days, it started to be getting jelly. I thought, it is because the brewer's yeast is speicialized for starch, not for sugar. Then, I repeated the project with wine yeast. The result was the same. What shall I do?
@02:50 you measure the weight grams in volume? So how would you measure grams of distilled water versus grams loads of sugar dissolved in water? By volume?
Hey mate, I made a ginger beer using your recepei and it was the best thing I ever had ! I made a few times but recently I have a problem, I can't make ginger bug don't know what is the problem...It doesn't ferment, just a sweet water when taste...even after 1 week. Maybe the ginger is too young or too old, maybe ginger not enough or too much...maybe too much or not enough sugar..Your profesional advice would be highly appreciated, thanks
I have been making ginger bugs & using it to make a ginger-ale/ginger beer, but also other things for a long time. Sometimes, when ginger isn't available (before I started growing my own inside my home & outside during warm weather months) I would add a little apple with the apple peel or even a small potato peel (if that is what I had on hand). Love your tips. Even though I've been doing this for a while, I did learn a few new things from watching the way you do things. Thanks.
@@Sunsilknz very bad actually. Probably because I was lazy and didnt disenfect everything properly or because of the summer heat at home. It tasted like medicine so I had to pour it down the drain. Haven't tried it since
Question: For the 3 to 4 days of adding ginger/sugar to the bug, do you add another cup of water every day too or is just the 10 g ginger/10 g sugar? Thanks!
My first attempt failed. It may have been because I used ginger that had been frozen (I store it in the freezer, because it’s easier to grate.)…the new one is plugging along, despite being neglected!
How fuzzy do you want the ginger bug? I made a much bigger one so obviously it'll take alittle longer, at this stage I only see very small bubbles on the rim. Also if you're not adding water to the bug after you use it, do I just keep using it until its empty and make another bug?? Those two questions would be very help, im on day 3 of following this :). I'm worried about the bowling stage, can I get it to hot?
Hey, if your seeing small bubbles that’s a great sign. You should be good. And I do add more water, sugar, and ginger each time I use it so I have a continuous supply
I recently found your website you do a great production thank you very helpful and to the point! Ginger is so expensive that I usually make my ginger tea at night before I go to bed and then I let it sit all night and strain it in the morning you get a much stronger tea that way and don’t waste so much ginger.
Well I've got my ginger Bug on the go, I'm itching to get it into a bottle, but I'll leave it for another day, today is day 3 I think I need to do day 4 ☺️ more foam, I have many friends who love ginger that can't wait to try it, fingers crossed it works as in the mountains of Spain we can't buy it here, thank you for the very easy video, love it...
hi today I am going to bottle for the first time. I wonder if this will work. I had another question, can I also add other flavors? I like a spicy taste and anise.
What I like about making ginger beer is that you can get ginger syrup and candied ginger as byproducts. After draining the wort and pitching the bug, I'll add more water and sugar to the used ginger and boil again; after cooling, bottle the syrup and put the ginger pieces on a wire rack to dry. Great additions to cocktails or in cooking.
I think I've screwed up mine. There were bubbles but after adding sugar and ginger everyday I was mixing it with a spoon. So it's not fuzzy as yours. Should I throw it away and start from the beginning or stick to it without stirring?
On a third day ginger bug stopped producing bubbles. On a fourth day it started growing mold. Tried three times with different ginger roots (from different sourses) and everything was sterilized.
Guys do you think I can reuse as fermenting bottles the beer bottles with the air proof seal ? Or do I have to buy new ones specifically advertised as fermenting bottles?
Nice! I think i will have to try this! When removing liquid from and adding new sugar and ginger to the gingerbug, should you also replace the removed liquid? When do you (if ever?) remove the ginger bits? - If you continue this process you would end up with no liquid and all ginger pieces in the masonry jar?
It's better to do this. But bottles will explode if the fermentation process is too active and if you do not open it for 5 days. In fact, fermentation lasts 2-5 days. Once a day it is better to open and relieve pressure.
Hi mr . I make ginger beer almost every day . So every day 1 add sugar,water,ginger to my ginger bug jar . Few weeks letter my jar almost full of ginger and there is "mother " on the ginger slices (in the ginger bug 's jar ) Should i make new ginger bug ??or continue with the old ginger bug ??
Hey, thanks for the recipe i just tried it and after bottling (it's been two days) my ginger beer and its foam is slimy... What did i do wrong ? Thanks for the tips
Hi, I wold like to ask if after some time feeding my ginger bug it´s okay to remove some ginger since my jar is getting full after days of feeding it, thanks!
Still got questions? 🤔 I got your answers right here: ua-cam.com/video/-SLdAtybYkk/v-deo.html&
How would you recommend making this enlarger quantities?
So when do you use the ginger?, I didn´t see any ginger in the video.....
We made a 14% ABV ginger beer on 04/29 and let it ferment for exactly 2 months. We spiced it with cinnamon, allspice berries, cloves, peppercorns, and a habanero. Turned out amazing.
Wow that sounds really great!! Will have to try that out
Did you add the spices when you bottled it?
How did you get 14% abv?
Wouldn't it be wine by that point?
That's my kinda beer. I like the higher ABV types. I have habs growing in my apartment. Would love to get the jist of how you brewed your brew.
Try using turmeric instead of ginger for the bug and ginger for for the 2nd ferment. It adds a unique bottom yet maintaining the bright ginger tang.
Could you elaborate the steps?
How about a combination of both?
I've some fresh turmeric I bought on a whim but don't know what to do with.
Thanks for the recipe, it’s awesome. I do like mine stronger so I modified mine a little. 40 g of ginger before the simmering and extra 10g (50g total) just after the pot leaves the stovetop to slowly cool down(IPA dry hop style😂).

What's the minimum amount of sugar you could add to get a complete ferment, and consume all the sugar?
Interested to know too
I do have a favorite cocktail that uses ginger beer: a Dirty Shirly. 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, 1 ounce of home made grenadine, 1 ounce of London dry gin and top the glass with about 5 oz of ginger beer. Stir and enjoy!
Question, you dont mention adding more water as you use the bug to replace water you have used.
yes add more water as you use it
I'm on day four and no foam or bubbles, should I keep adding or just wait or do over?
Day 4 here, same problem
It happens. It's not a problem. Continue feeding with ginger, sugar - optional (taste, if it is sweet, you can skip the sugar). This is a period of calm. Sooner or later, after a few days, the ginger bug will come to life and bubbles will appear. Or it will spoil, but it will be clear by the smell.

Should i use boil water or tap water?
Tap is ok. Spring/RO water is best. Boil is good if you have patience for that to cool down

Currently making this recipe with my gingerbug about to be fed for the second time. So excited to taste the final product!
How'd it turn out?
@@Sunsilknz very bad actually. Probably because I was lazy and didnt disenfect everything properly or because of the summer heat at home.
It tasted like medicine so I had to pour it down the drain. Haven't tried it since
Bummer, I've just made my bug. Hopefully I have better luck.
I can't wait to try this. It's so expensive to buy good ginger beer
This is very helpful, thank you!
are you supposed to drink ginger beer only, or mixture ir with water to dilute it?
Question: For the 3 to 4 days of adding ginger/sugar to the bug, do you add another cup of water every day too or is just the 10 g ginger/10 g sugar? Thanks!
A bit of a later reply, but no need to add more water. :)
Something I should try todo this summer, think I would like to scale it up a bit though for the time it takes.

*Correction: I said organic has no pesticides, but I misspoke as many of you have pointed out! Thank you!
Why you seal it immediately in a bottle? Shouldn't it ferment a bit freely before getting pressurized?

Can i use Brown Sugar instead of White Sugar??
Of course
Next Level ferments ! Cheers Trent !!
Thanks man! Cheers!
I think I've screwed up mine. There were bubbles but after adding sugar and ginger everyday I was mixing it with a spoon. So it's not fuzzy as yours. Should I throw it away and start from the beginning or stick to it without stirring?
Genius, thanks

Guys do you think I can reuse as fermenting bottles the beer bottles with the air proof seal ? Or do I have to buy new ones specifically advertised as fermenting bottles?
does anyone not have that much of bubbles too in their gingerbug? cuz mine has bubbles but only spots across, not the entire surface
Nice! I think i will have to try this!
When removing liquid from and adding new sugar and ginger to the gingerbug, should you also replace the removed liquid?
When do you (if ever?) remove the ginger bits? - If you continue this process you would end up with no liquid and all ginger pieces in the masonry jar?
But what do you do when tou you used up all the liquid ??
Do the bottles need to be gassed during the three day resting period after bottling?
Is it possible to make ginger beer taste little sweet mine is not coming out sweet
Some recipes advise to burp the bottle when the gingerbeer is in the final ferment stage to prevent explosion. Necessary or no?
It's better to do this. But bottles will explode if the fermentation process is too active and if you do not open it for 5 days. In fact, fermentation lasts 2-5 days. Once a day it is better to open and relieve pressure.
If you don’t let it cool down and you add the ginger bug what happens?
So, I just finished my first round. It tastes like a flat diet ginger ale. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
@TheBruSho
Amazing vids!
Is it possible to use honey or any other natural sweetener instead of sugar?
Hi mr . I make ginger beer almost every day .
So every day 1 add sugar,water,ginger to my ginger bug jar .
Few weeks letter my jar almost full of ginger and there is "mother " on the ginger slices (in the ginger bug 's jar )
Should i make new ginger bug ??or continue with the old ginger bug ??
Is this less than 1% alcohol, similar to whats in kombucha? I ask because i want to give me kid daughtwr some
Do you need to burp the bottles every day during the 3 days prior to refrigeration?
With so much sugar making Ginger beer, is it safe for diabetics?
Hey, thanks for the recipe i just tried it and after bottling (it's been two days) my ginger beer and its foam is slimy... What did i do wrong ? Thanks for the tips
Anyone know of good place to get used fermentation grade bottles? I’m going to try my local thrift stores first
Amazon has an bunch of different ones- six 16 oz bottles from 20 bucks and up.
This looks amazing. How long does it last in the fridge?
Your thoughts on adding vanilla to the brew.
Could be tasty! Go light at first and see how it is
Hi, I wold like to ask if after some time feeding my ginger bug it´s okay to remove some ginger since my jar is getting full after days of feeding it, thanks!
Of course. This is what you need to do if there is too much ginger.
