ginger beer - stop fermentation

hi, is it at all possible to prevent fermentation and to prevent my homemade ginger beer from being alcoholic?

i have been told that citric acid will prevent it, but not sure.

thanks

No citric acid wont stop it. Are you using yeast to carb it or are you force carbing it?

hi, using yeast...

are you saying it will definately be alcoholic?

No you can make it non-alcolic.

Once they have carbed up you are going to have to cool them down quickly and keep them cool.Put in freezer for 1 hr then transfer to ref. Try to keep around 50 degree give a good two weeks at 50 degree and the yeast will start settling pretty hard on bottom of bottle. Not to say you have to wait two weeks but it will taste better in about two weeks.
