I have no idea what you tried, but the below works as expected for me.
\version "2.24.1"
\language "english"
global = {
\key e \minor
\time 6/8
}
melody = \relative c' {
\global
\tuplet 3/2 8 { e16 [ g e ] g [ e g ] a [ e a ] b [ d b ] c [ g c ] b g b} |
\tuplet 3/2 8 { e16 g e g e g a e a b d b c g c b g b} |
}
\score {
<<
\new Staff \melody
\new Staff \with {
beamExceptions = \beamExceptions { \tuplet 3/2 {
16 [ 16 16 ] 16 [ 16 16 ] 16 [ 16 16 ] 16 [ 16 16 ] 16 [ 16 16 ] 16 [ 16 16 ] } } }
\melody
>>
}
