So the better half wanted some birchbeer. I bought the little extract bottle. Seems easy enough. Add water sugar extract bottle and yeast. It says ale yeast champagne yeast or bread yeast (that ain't gonna happen).
Questions are, sugar+yeast=alcohol. I don't really want an alcoholic birchbeer. Secondly the guys at the lhbs said I can bottle these in 12oz bottles, the same ones that I use for my beer. Wouldn't the pressure from the carbonation give me bottle bombs? I really have no way of keeping these fridge cold. I kinda wanted to store them on the shelf with my other tasty beverages. Can this be done safely?
Thanks in advance.
