Started a ginger ferment today. 1200g ginger 600g sugar, 2 gallons of water.
Once the initial ferment calms down we will be transferring to flip tops, then using the dregs to start other ferments (our favorite right now is using Santa Cruz brand Strawberry Lemonade and a couple ounces of elderberry syrup!

This is something I need to try. I love ginger
Blended ginger with skin on, put in water, add sugar. It's very easy.
Usually I have the primary in an airtight container and burp it several times a day.
YOU NEED GOOD HEAD SPACE ginger gets super excited when it ferments and it will totally bubble over uncontrollably for the first few days / week
A gallon jug with 3 quarts of liquid 1 quart air is a good approach.
Last one we had we were drinking off for about 6 months. Left in the primary (gallon jug) that one we didn't use sugar, it was a great mixer.
