I am looking for a recipe for Root Beer. No extract wanted. I've been drinking Virgil's for quite some time, and I figured that I would try my hand at it. Anyone out there have a good recipe??? :rockin:
Grimsawyer said:I don't understand this at all. You add yeast to root beer to carb it up. Why then don't you have 50 bottle bombs? any amount of sugar is going to feed them yeasties and soda pop is almost all sugar. That's a beer like banquet of sugar to eat. Wouldn't it be ideal to force carbonate rootbeer in a keg then fill some bottles up or is there a trick i don't know about to keep the yeast from eating all the sugar?
Chad said:I think he was asking about the residual sweetness we all expect from soda. I'm wondering the same thing. If there is yeast in there, wouldn't it ferment all the way out, leaving a dry (unsweetened) sassafras or root beer concoction?
