Notes

Yeast Nutrient is a mixture of diammonium phosphate and food-grade urea that nourishes yeast, ensuring that it remains healthy throughout fermentation. Add one teaspoon per gallon recommended for wine, mead, seltzer, and cider.

I have made several ginger beers and I use about an ounce of thinly sliced ginger root per gallon. That gives a very ginger forward flavor profile so if I only wanted a hint of ginger flavor I would reduce that by at least half... or more
