Second fermentation scooby

[Dr_Gonzo25]

Good morning to everyone.

I just started to homebrew kombucha.
No problem with the first fermentation, but during the second one (in bottle with fresh fruit juice and some sugar for carbonation) i find out a new scoby has been generated in each bottle.
does anyone knows how to avoid it?
thanks you very much

short answer NO. Solution for me is to pour thru a stainless strainer which also keeps the ginger chunks out.
