    Best Fermentor for Kombucha?

    Kombucha will do fine in that bucket, kombucha loves stainless steel in my experience. But that bucket wouldn't work for me because it's just too small. The turn around time for kombucha is roughly 2 weeks and my family demands way more than 3 gallons of kombucha every 2 weeks.

    Best Fermentor for Kombucha?

    1.) "Starter tea", can someone explain that to me? My scoby is a live disc in fluid, so can I just drop it in? Answer: Starter tea is raw kombucha. Everytime you harvest your kombucha you want to save some kombucha to be the starter tea for your next batch. But if you dont have kombucha in the...

    My first Kombucha

    Kombucha Bottles for Retail

    Hello, I am looking to start a retail Kombucha operation but I'm having trouble finding the right bottle. I really like the long cylinder shape 16 oz, like GT Kombucha. Anyone have any ideas where to buy those in bulk? I want clear glass not amber. Thanks

    Kombucha Mother Health

Maybe my brew been too weak and my acid level has been too low to fight off any bugs that are coming into contact. That coupled with the high pH of the...

    Kombucha Mother Health
