Ive been brewing kombucha for a couple of years and i have not changed my recipe but Ive noticed changes in appearance and taste:
1. Appearance: Scoby's dont grow as thick anymore. They used to grow to 2" thickness in a glass bottle about 12" dia bottle and the last one barely grew to 1/4". Although the pH was still at 3.
2. Taste: I feel its less sweet in the end of the 2nd fermentation, maybe a little acidic even.
Any ideas?
My recipe: 32 cups of water + 20 black tea bags + 3 cups sugar. Stored in dark bathroom at room temp here which is between 24-37
