James Windred Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 hi guys first brew I've done just have a question, bottled my ginger beer on Monday and had a look today and not sure if its infected or it's just doing its thing and if this is normal. I have attached a photo. also wondering if I should be cracking the kids to let some pressure out feeling rock hard :/ thanks in advanced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Von Blotto Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Not unless you bottled it too soon or added too much priming sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Von Blotto Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 7 days probably is too soon for a ginger beer. They usually take a couple of weeks to ferment out for some reason. Did you get stable SG readings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Windred Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 yes we had a stable 1.005 for 2 days... should we just let it run its course for a couple weeks.. or crack the lids thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silmaril Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 The plastic bottles are the best for ginger beer / anything high pressure. I wouldn't stress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
