I grew my own scoby, it came out great, almost picture perfect. First fermentation of about a gallon went fine. It seems to taste OK. I just finished the second fermentation in 16oz glass bottles. I did a couple with ginger (way too much, my fault) and a few with mango (not bad). Should it be growing baby scobys in the 16 oz bottles, cuz it seems like it is?

That's pretty normal.

Each fermentation will produce another SCOBY. I used to make ACV and learned that the hard way. Used a 1 gallon jug and, when I drained off vinegar for use, would replace it with already fermented cider. After doing that 4 times. I had 5 SCOBYs in the jug. The oldstr one had grown so thick that I had one hell of a time getting it out.
