TASK DEFINITION: Given a paragraph about cooking, and a set of conversational questions and answers about the paragraph, say whether the passage contains sufficient information to answer the follow-up question. Say Yes if it is answerable; otherwise, say No. The paragraph has the prefix 'CONTEXT:'. Each conversation question has a prefix 'Q:' followed by the answer prefix 'A:', and the follow-up question has a prefix 'FOLLOWUP_Q:'.
PROBLEM: CONTEXT: That silty precipitate is just a thing that happens when fermenting - it's the yeasts dying off and settling out of the solution. I've seen it with mead, yeast-based soda recipes, and other fermented drinks (like fermented lemonade etc) - your ginger ale would be yeast based soda, by the way, if you drink while fairly young and carbonated, like with a day or two of fermentation (you can have longer storage if not actively fermenting, ie in the fridge where yeasts are nearly dormant or having killed the yeasties off somehow) while it will likely grow increasingly alcoholic if you leave it an extended amount of time.This precipitate isn't a problem, it might be off-putting to see or taste (if you get a whole mouthful) but it isn't harmful and I at least will often drink it because I don't care enough to avoid it, but if you don't like it you can rack the beverage - that is, let it sit still to settle, and gently pour or siphon from the (clearer) top, and stop pouring when just the settled, cloudy yeasty dregs are left. If you're fermenting for an extended period of time (ie, alcohol) these may be racked several times while aging to keep the yeast from building up and possibly introducing off flavors - though its usually a few months between racking, so I wouldn't expect off flavors to develop quickly. <sep> Q: I am sorry but I have no idea. I didn't know you could make your own ginger ale.###You learn something new everyday as the old saying goes. A: your ginger ale would be yeast based soda <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: There is tea in ginger ale?

SOLUTION: No

PROBLEM: CONTEXT: There is not really a turning point. The way that wine goes bad is the process of making vinegar. From wikipedia:The word "vinegar" derives from the Old French vin aigre, meaning "sour wine".The Canadian government limits things that can be sold as 'vinegar' to something with an acetic acid content of 4-12%, so you could do the technical-bureaucratic thing and wait for the acetic acid to get up to 4%.If you aren't hung up on technicalities, then you can use it as soon as it gets sour enough. It is done when all the alcohol has been changed to acetic acid, but it is a bit hard to taste since the acetic flavor dominates. <sep> Q: When is homemade wine-based vinegar simply bad wine? A: There is not really a turning point. The way that wine goes bad is the process of making vinegar <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Can I stop the process once it starts?

SOLUTION: No

PROBLEM: CONTEXT: Fish sauce! I think the clam juice is probably already a substitute for fish sauce anyway, so it should make a very good substitute. (If you look up recipes for Thai beef salad you'll find tons of things with fish sauce, and probably not much with clam juice.)You probably want to use less, though, maybe starting with 2-4 tablespoons, though I've seen recipes using more.It should be fine for the dietary restriction too; it's just made with anchovies, not an unknown blend of seafood, but of course check the label just in case. <sep> Q: What can I use instead of clam juice for a salad recipe? A: Fish sauce! I think the clam juice is probably already a substitute for fish sauce anyway, so it should make a very good substitute <sep> FOLLOWUP_Q: Does it effect the flavor in any way?

SOLUTION:
No
