Ginger Bug/Soda Kahm mitigation
I know kahm isn't necessarily bad, but my second batch of ginger bug started growing kahm, much to my dismay. I know I can skim it off or decant it, but I'd really like to just get a clean batch. I've seen suggestions to leave it closed/covered for the duration, but I thought you need to add ginger and sugar each day. I'm guessing you'd need different amounts of sugar and ginger if it's a make it and leave alone method. My jar is sterilized. I keep it on the kitchen counter, out of the sunlight. I even used distilled water this past time.
