Yes, you need to seal the stuff in an almost full bottle or growler, in a safe area that can tolerate an explosion. I used a deep restaurant-style busing tray. Never had an accident but better safe than sorry. When fully carbonated, shove it into the fridge. Ambient temperature makes a big difference

@stack pleanty of experience with kvass here. I used a Colman growler this time rather than the old 2l bottles. It's a nice beverage but I'm going to keep playing with it.

Anyone else trying out making a gingerbug to make carbonated drinks at home? I'm used to making kvas here but not my own starter for the fermentation process. Just started a bug today and hope I get somewhere. I had a lot of fun working with yogurt once opon a time. When Dannon said they were going to patent their yogurt I was like, hoist up the jolly rodger we be taking some of that in the name of the king....
