Hi fellow brewers.
I would like to discuss the topic of a SCOBY which is often misinterpreted. As far as I know the SCOBY is only the starter liquid as the microbial activity is much more than found when looking at the "mat". Does anyone know where this misunderstanding began?
If the latter is correct does anyone know what the function is of adding a few pellicles from previous batches?
