Make your own ginger beer soft drink or alcoholic Blunderberg Ginger Beer at home
How to use:
Ready to Keg Kit
These kits utilise alcohol from VINKA so you don’t have to ferment anything yourself. Depending on your Keg Size you’ll use a number of Flavour Shot Sachets and FermStop Sachets and white sugar from your pantry. (See Recipes Below)
Keggers, Bottlers and Canners that use sugar to prime
You would simply add these flavour shots to your fermenter/bottling bucket/ keg. It is very difficult to determine how much you would add as it depends on the flavour intensity of what you’ve brewed/mixed up. Whether that be a beer, seltzer or cider for example.
These Flavour Shots are extremely more potent when paired with a sugar or sugar alternative. Artificial sweeteners in dryer fermented recipes may be a great way to boost the flavour.
Soft Drink Ready to Keg Kit
These kits only utilise white sugar or artificial sweeteners, a number of Flavour Shots and FermStops based on the Keg Size.
Mix up a 19L Ball Lock Keg or a Half Size 9.5L Ball Lock Keg of classic ginger beer soft drink or alcoholic ginger beer at home with ease by following the instructions below. Simply mix, carbonate and enjoy!
For best results ensure the beverage is fully carbonated before consuming and allow the keg to condition over 1-2 weeks as the flavour will settle and improve over time. For a less sweet option simply reduce the white sugar addition.
