I was wondering if I could use some non-fermentable sugars to produce rootbeer. I was figuring rootbeer extract for flavor, some lactose for sweetness, and some maltodextrin for body. Using ample yeast, could I then just add some dextrose and let the yeast eat that to provide carbonation, while leaving plenty of other sugars behind and not risk exploding bottles?
