Hey guys, I am new to this site.
Lately I have been trying to look up how to make a more alcoholic 'bucha. I dont have ANY experience with brewing beer nor do I have the equipment, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience with just putting an airlock on a 2nd fermentation and what happened? My theory is (based on little knowledge I have) that the yeasts will keep producing alcohol and the airlock will keep the bacteria from using it up. My experiment I have going now is on its 2nd day and is bubbling a bit. I also put a good amount (approx 30% of the bottle volume) of organic strawberry lemonade in the 2nd fermentation, just to give it something to work on.
Again, I am just wondering if anyone knows if this is a bad idea or whatnot, ha ha ha.
