Hi guys, hope this is the right place to post this question.
I've had a look at a load of ginger beer recipes but most of the look incredibly dangerous, to my mind anyway (1kg sugar in 1 gallon fermenting in a sealed container). There seems to be quite a lot of stories of exploding bottles.
Would it be posible to ferment a 1 gallon batch with sugar to achieve about 2-3% alcohol, then transfer to 2l bottles and then prime them?
I take it this would then have to be sweetened as needed before drinking.
Basically just looking for a safer way to make this. Any help appreciated.
Thanks
