I've used Yemoo's GBP (ginger beer plant) a few times, with great success. The culture is consistent and arrives in a well-sealed envelope. I would definitely recommend calling to request a Monday shipment. I tried ordering on a Monday, but it still takes them a few days to process the order and get it shipped, and USPS may also lag behind by a day or two. Mine was delivered about 5 days after it shipped, and it smelled a little fermented in the envelope, but the first batch of ginger beer was delicious and batches two and three are already brewing nicely.
Thanks!
So awesome. Worked great, definitely different than ginger bug soda. Enjoy both but Ginger Beer plant seems a more complex taste
I read about ginger beer plant in Art of Fermentation and found this website after some brief looking around. I orderer the ginger beer plant and kit which arrived about one week later. I believe it was shipped the monday after I ordered to limit the chance the GBP would be delayed in shipping. Followed simplified instructions on the website and 6 days later I had a full bottle delicious carbonated ginger beer. My first batch was better than any ginger beer or ginger ale I've ever purchased from a store and I only did the bare minimum. I'm going to run a few more batches with basic ingredients to strengthen my ginger beer plant up then start experimenting with flavors! Very good stuff and I'm super happy I tried it out
Great product - produced really great ginger beer! And excellent guide.
If you want to know why it's called ginger beer and not ginger ale....it has a beer flavor. It's great, it cleans out your ears on the inside.
