We made root beer sometimes when I was a kid, and the process
was pretty much the same as yours, except, as I remember,
the brewing time was two weeks, so we generally put raisins in
the bottles to make them ferment faster.  One or two raisins is
normal, but naturally I had to try filling up a bottle with raisins
and then adding the root beer.  After about ten days, I opened it;
the geiser sprayed every surface in the kitchen, including the
ceiling - took me a couple hours to clean it up.
