New To Kombucha
|
|
Hey all, i am finally getting the stuff around to make Kombucha, I am getting a good amount of Different Teas, Greens,red,blacks,and even some white tea. Any advice on Blends?
I will be doing 1g batches, any advice on how much sugar to use? I dont want it to be like drinking vinegar but i do want it to have some sourness to it.
The only Tea i am Unsure of is the Red. Its Rooibos red and is technically considered an herbal tea since it doesn't come from Camellia sinensis, but i have also read that people have used it with no problems. I do plan to use it in a very Limited Amount, maybe 10-15% of the total tea used, unless someone here has had a bad experience using it?
I am also buying a kit on Amazon, Just basically to get all the stuff in one place, It comes with a SCOBY but i am wondering if Growing up a SCOBY from a bottle of raw Kombucha would be better?
Here is the kit i am getting: http://www.amazon.com/Kombucha-Brooklyn-Home-Brew-Kit/dp/B004F27F5C/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328076764&sr=8-1
Any tips tricks or advice or recipes would be greatly appreciated.
