      @selfsufficienthomesteading8287 Před měsícem

      Canned coconut water is really low in sugar, so there won't be enough food for the micro organisms. You will have to supplement either with some extra sugar or fruit juice. Remember the MO will eat all the sugar.

    Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Hoping to revive my ginger bug. Following the instructions given, I washed my (NOT ) organic, very expensive 🙈 ginger which is perhaps why it's not active. Another great tip, freezing the bits. Would love to see you make ginger sweets from the 'leftover' ginger. Just 👍 and Sub😊

    Hi! loved your tutorial. Is it important to use sterilized jars for both the ginger bug and then the sodas/juices? How can i do it easily? Do you wash the gingers, the knife, the cutting board, etc? I forgot 1 day to feed it and did it 14 hs later and i think it died, no activity. And also i think i added to much of ginger and sugar for the jar's size (the water turned like jelly). I'm gonna start again from scratch.

    • @selfsufficienthomesteading8287
      @selfsufficienthomesteading8287 Před měsícem

      Hi there! Thank you for your feedback. I don't sterilize anything. I just was it with warm soapy water, rinse and dry. Do not wash your ginger, the yeast you need lives on the peels. It's important to get your ratio of sugar and ginger right and yes choose a jar that's not too small. Not feeding it will definitely slow it down and activity will stop. The yeast need the sugar daily to survive. Please update me on your new bug and if you manage.

  • @kriselt
    @kriselt Před 2 měsíci

    Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge! I do not know much about this process, but willing to try this soon! I was just wondering about the finished product, you mentioned that it would turn into alcohol if left out for too long. Does it mean you have to consume the drink once it has reached the preffered flavour? Is there a way to store the drink in a way that would prevent it from turning into alcohol? Like storing it in the fridge? :)

    • @selfsufficienthomesteading8287
      @selfsufficienthomesteading8287 Před 2 měsíci

      Yes the natural occurring yeast combined with the sugar results in a fermentation process that will end in alcohol if left long enough. So get your gingerbug active and then add to juice and leave out for 1 to 3 days. Keep tasting and stop where it's not sweet but rather a 'matured' flavour. This could be after a day depending on temperatures. (Put it in sealed bottle if you want it carbonated. Once in fridge fermentation would not stop but slow down considerably. So consuming it in a few days will be fine. Glad you're enjoying the content

    I'm making crab apple vinegar, first time. How do I know when the alcohol has all changed into acid and it's time to bottle? Everyone says taste it. But as a first-timer, I'm not sure what the test is. It tastes VERY strong and nose burning!

    • @selfsufficienthomesteading8287
      @selfsufficienthomesteading8287 Před 2 měsíci

      Penny just confirm, have you strained your fruit already? Also how long has this whole process taken you from start already? As for knowing when it is right, there is a distinct difference in smell from the alcohol stage to the acetic acid (vinegar) stage. If you take a good sniff your nose will tell you that it's vinegar by just your reaction 😂. It smells highly acidic. Also timeframe could be a good indicator. It definitely won't take more than 60 days. Things like temperature and container plays a role in the timing.

    • @pennypistorius197
      @pennypistorius197 Před 2 měsíci

      @@selfsufficienthomesteading8287 thanks. Yes, it's strained and has been in a dark cupboard for around 2 months. In the beginning it smelt very strongly of alcohol, but it doesn't any more - much more acid now. I reckon it's probably done. I'll bottle it.

  • @selfsufficienthomesteading8287

    You don't need to turn it no. To know if it is dry you feel it. Some people like it dry on the outside ans soft and pink inside while others like myself like it completely dry. So I wait till it is hard before I take it out. If it's the first time you will be making it I am sure you are going to love it.
