What you'll do
This soft fermented drinks class with The Fermentarium applies the principles of fermentation to non-alcoholic drinks. A great alternative for those who aren’t fans of kombucha but still want to reap the benefits of drinkable ferments.
In this fermentation class, you will learn general fermentation knowledge plus drink-specific principles such as; first and secondary fermentations, drink maintenance, how to use up your surplus, and how the variations in the fermentation process impact the final flavour.
Over the course of three hours, you’ll learn to make a ginger bug to take home and brew your own ginger beer. We’ll also provide you with alternative usages for the ginger bug to kickstart other fermented drinks, as well as how to make other flavoured starter bugs. We’ll also make fruit kvass, and water kefir (with grains included), whilst discussing the history and cultures of those fermented soft drinks.
We’ll have a selection of drinks to try out including various flavoured water kefirs, tepache, fruit kvass, beetroot kvass, and ginger beer, complemented by an explanation of how to make each one.

Your teacher
The Fermentarium is an independent organisation dedicated to promoting the small-scale production of “real” fermented food and drink. The adventure began in 2014, beginning with sourdough bread and pizza making.
Owners, Simon and David, wanted to share their knowledge and experience with others and started running lactic fermentation classes. Eventually, they were joined by Anna in 2016 and added further classes to their repertoire including kombucha, soft fermented drinks, cultured condiments and dairy ferments.
They run interactive and exciting classes that share the love for fermented foods with others. Whether you're a newbie or well experienced, anyone can join. Corporate events and private courses can also be catered for.
