Thanks for the reply. I'll be starting one this weekend and was just concerned and thought about mail ordering a Scoby.
That's encouraging Spenghali. I started mine on Friday in a mason jar. I used two bottles of GT's dregs and overall about half a bottle of the liquid with some fresh sweetened tea.
GT's did respond to my email and they only have the "classic" in a couple of states. I find it comical and sad they have to use a liquor distributor to get out the product, but such is life.
I used a whole bottle of GT's, not just the dregs. I read somewhere that use of a whole bottle will create a better environment for the scoby, since it will get the pH closer to where it needs to be.
I have a few jars using different sugars, teas, etc. using the new GT's. Most of them are approaching 30 days, and only one has a baby... I used the original flavour. Maybe I'll try with one of the synergy brews...
Do you think the mango flavor fermented out, or wasn't strong enough to persist?I used it in subsequent batches and contrary to what I had been told, I did not taste mango in any other batches
I was actuall surprised just how easy it was if I was patient. Oh... That's the hard part btw.

+1 I continue to struggle with this too. Lol
