 +__**Overview for making the "probiotic beverage"**__
 +
 +  * 8 l brew volume (culture volume = Vc; Vc=8 l) 
 +  * 16x 500 ml bottles of probiotic lactic drink will be harvested 
 +  * primary fermentation will take up to 7-10 days (room temperature 20-30°C)
 +  * secondary fermentation will take 2 - 3 days (room temperature 20-30°C)
 +  * 1 week aging at cold - in the refrigerator
 +  * 10 days total for the drink, 14 days with basic aging
 +
 +__**Prodction Process**__
 +
 +For 8 litres brew of probiotic drink is needed :
 +
 +  * 7% (w/v; 560 g) of sugar (either light brown or dark brown sugar cane sugar or beet root sugar)
 +  * 1% (v/v; 80 ml) of milk kefir culture - respectively strained liquid called kefir whey
 +  * water to fill up the brew till final/culture volume = 8 l
 +
 +Manual
 +
 +  * dissolve 560 g of sugar in hot water in a bowl
 +  * add extra water to dilute it and cool down so it is not too hot - could break fermentation vessel if it is glass
 +  * transfer to the fermentation vessel and add water too nearly 8 litres
 +  * add 80 ml of milk kefir whey, mix a bit if you like
 +  * close the vessel (gas needs to be able to escape) but it is anaerobic fermentation
 +  * let to ferment for 4-7 days at temperature ranging from 20 - 30°C, this is called primary fermentation phase
 +  * when the brew taste fermented or after 7 days decide on the flavour
 +  * add the flavour and transfer the infused brew to the bottles
 +  * close the bottles tightly and let them ferment at room temperature for 2-3 days, that is secondary fermentation phase
 +  * transfer the bottles to the fridge and let them age for at least few days or week so the flavours have time to combine and  mature
 +  * enjoy!
 +
 +__** Ginger Beer beverage**__
 +
 +  * 2-4% (w/v) of shredded ginger (200-400 g for 10 l batch; 3%(w/v; 246 g for 8 l batch) 
 +
 +Procedure
 +
 +  * taste the brew before adding ginger infusion deciding if it is sweet enough or if more sugar should be added (later on)
 +  * separatly prepare a pot, add around 600 ml water and shredded ginger to it and bring to boil
 +  * let to simmer for 5 minutes or so, leaving it cool down later on
 +  * strain the ginger through a sieve, straining cloth or brewing bag, now add sugar if you think the brew is not sweet enough, mix it and add all the liquid to the fermented brew, mix well
 +  * taste the brew and if it pleases your tong start to bottle, leaving around 10% of the bottle free for safe carbonation
 +  * make the bottles tops tight so the carbon dioxide doesn't escape
 +  * let to ferment at room temperature for another 1-3 days making the drinks nice and fizzy, secondary fermentation
 +  * transfer the brews to the fridge and let them age for week or so for optimal flavour
 +  * enjoy!
