Summer Temps: Will it survive?

[hombrewthatstuff]

How will my kombucha be when my house gets into the mid-high 90 degree temps this summer when I leave my air conditioning off while I am at work?

Ive been brewing constantly for about 6 months but haven't gotten to the time of the year where it will get that hot here in south Texas. I dont have any pets and dont really want to rack up the bill just to keep some tea cold.

If only we could offset eachother's ambient climates!

Signs point to yes.

Temperatures above 35C [95F] will usually stick [stop] most fermentation. At 41C [105F] most yeast begin to die off and at 140F yeast dies within a few minutes.

I brew kombucha here in Manila in the Philippines where temperatures are rarely below 35C at this time of year!! My kombucha has never had a problem yet.
