Hi,
I have an infestation of some kind of white insect, very tiny, like half a mm or less. I redid the batch, rinsing the scoby well, and ensuring that the tea remained covered while it cooled, yet I have run into this infestation again.
I'm in New Zealand, it is summer, about 24 deg and the brew is in a dark cupboard.
Have a look at these pics. This time I'm inclined just to let the batch ferment, see if the bugs die off and filter them out..
Help!
