Making some apple soda with store bought juice and a ginger bug. Previous juices have needed 2 days to carb and that was supposed to be today. Yesterday, one self vented, so I burped all 3. Today, one exploded. Never expected it.
Is store bought apple juice different than other store bought juices? Is my ginger bug different than last time? Idk.
I keg so avoid that, however, I’ve had a violent fermentation that Sistine Chapel’d my ceiling as if it were painted by Jackson Pollock.
Yeah you need to find good bottles, I had some explode too.
The ginger bug is probably what affected it here, my wonderful neighbour has given me a few homemade bottles of ginger beer before, and one’s exploded in the fridge, the other had enough pressure build to blow the lid off when opening from a remaining 2 inches of dregs.
Apparently, there’s just something about ginger fermentation that really builds pressure
