@skadalajara & @kyt thanks- I did test the ph and it is quite low. I'm thinking for me at least, possibly the acidity could have caused my problem (I was drinking a bottle every day)? My stomach is healing and is now only sensitive to vinegar and citrus.

I'm going to have to try finding some of those- thanks! I also just tried the plastic wrap thing- so far so good :)

Thanks kyt :)

My mother scoby formed a large air bubble underneath- is that bad? The tea tastes sweeter than last time too. This is my second batch of kombucha EVER, and I have no clue what I'm doing. So excited to learn though! :D
