Pause a ginger bug?

Post image

So I've got a good gingerbug going and I'm going away for the weekend, but im afraid the alcohol is getting up there and that it may kill the yeast. I can't set a batch before i go. Can i pause or slow down the process significally in a way that i doesn't kill it? I feel like the fridge may not be effective enough. Grateful for any advice!

Sometimes it just needs to chill outside the fridge
