  1. My ginger bug is ready! Gonna be making some ginger beer first, then will do more interesting fruit sodas like last year. Exciting! #fermentation #gingerbug #wildfermentation

  2. Die ersten Tage sind ja immer extra spannend: springt er an, oder isses doch schon zu kalt? N bisschen gefüttert wird trotzdem ;)

  3. So, wollte mir eigentlich nur n Aufguss mit frischem Ingwer machen, aber jetzt musste ich doch schnell noch n #gingerbug ansetzen erstmal...

  4. Finally the house has cooled down enough... for me to feel like boiling a pan for half an hour... so after 2 weeks in the fridge... my #GingerBug is finally going to be used for the 1st time... I'm starting off my first ever #GingerBeer #fermentation 🫚🏺

  5. Ginger bug & turmeric bug (hopefully). They are basically starters (like you have with a sourdough starter) which you can then make probiotic sodas out of. I don't drink alcohol anymore so wanted to try making some more interesting drinks as most soft drinks are too sweet #gingerbug #fermentation

  6. Decided to start my #gingerbug from scratch. Don't think that the last one ever really took.

  7. I made #MapleSyrup #GingerBug this week.

    Day 1: aerobic fermentation
    Day 2: capped, let it get fizzy, then had some in the evening. It was nice and fizzy but still overly sweet.
    Day 3: Left in the fridge. Went flat. Still sweet, but more spicy.
    Day 4: Left out on the counter. Still pretty flat but had bubbles on the surface in the jar. More spicy than sweet, but still sweet. Most of the maple flavor is gone, unfortunately. Boozey.

  8. #GingerBug day 4! It looks good and healthy now, but I'm going to stick it out to 7 days to be safe. Maybe I'll add a bit of water today.

  9. Getting the video of today's #GingerBug feeding, here's a picture I took yesterday of the bubbles.

  10. #GingerBug day 3. I'll be posting videos of feedings every day for 7 days, then we get to brew!

  11. #GingerBug Day 2

    meant to post this last night but didn't. I'll feed it a little earlier this afternoon to be sure I have enough time to post the video today too.

    sorry there's no audio today, I forgot to turn on the microphone
