My wife bought me a starter kit (ingredients / scoby only) that has enough to brew a 5 gallon batch. Obviously as a beer brewer I already have carboys and all that stuff. Ideally I would prefer to keg my kombucha so I am not worried about bottling. A few questions.
1.) "Starter tea", can someone explain that to me? My scoby is a live disc in fluid, so can I just drop it in?
2.) Batch size. Should I go smaller batches or just do the 5 gallons. Also I will need a large mouth fermentor, so any recommendations?
3.) Equipment. I should have a separate racking cane and all that to prevent beer cross contamination correct?
Thanks in advance.
