Freshly Fermented Vegan & Organic Kombucha SCOBY (2 Litre Kombucha)

My first foray into kombucha making and I really didn't know what to expect; I needn't have worried. I knew that this scoby was coming from a respected and known supplier who has a great website and 'how to' videos available. It took a bit of planning on my part because I really wanted to get it right and the website and videos helped with every step. I did get a little worried that it hadn't worked/gone bad but rather than throwing it all away, I kept the brew going for a few weeks - this turned put to be the best thing because it initially didn't look like it had worked but it turned out that my house is just not very warm and so it took longer to ferment. When I bottled it I went for a 'second fermentation' in the bottles and rather than just adding sugar for this, I added candied ginger - and it tasted amazing! I used Yorkshire Tea teabags (of course!) to make the first brew -2l of water and 4 teabags- and it was delicious and easy... when you know how. I've no idea if kombucha has all the benefits we read about but I do know that making my own is cheap, easy, tasty and more likely healthier than bought ones which have preservatives in. One scoby for endless brews of 2 litres of homemade kombucha - a bargain!±. In the summer I hope to get a lot more because it'll be warmer and only take a few days to brew before bottling! (I hope). Buy it, try it - why not?

Took a few batches but is now making some excellent kombucha and I'm really pleased with this scoby

Really disappointed, went mouldy in my second brew. I wouldn’t buy again!

Scoby looked healthy. Was not a strong enough starter for the advertised 2l. Never had a scoby grow mould until this.

Good quality SCOBY, clear instructions, made a batch with black tea and then a batch with green tea, both turned out great. Baby SCOBY was growing on top on the very first day, smooth fermentation process in general

Liked the taste of the kombucha but it didn’t agree with me or my husband so gave up after a couple of weeks

Love the flavour, easy to maintain the culture and arrived quickly

Got mouldy and had to toss the whole thing. :( Brewed kombucha for years. Had to replace Scooby after a hiatus of brewing, and the old one didn’t freeze properly. And I brew beer, so I know proper cleaning and sterile environments!!

The package arrived 2 days after i placed the order. The scoby was nice, white and thick with 200ml of strong starter tea. You know that the starter tea and the scoby were healthy as a new scoby can already be seen forming after 4 days of brewing! Deffinitely recomend this seller.

Excellent produit

Probabilmente è arrivato “morto”. Dopo quasi 20 giorni di fermentazione l’ho dovuto buttare perché non fermentava affatto.

La mère est de bonne qualité et j'ai déjà une fille qui commence a se former au bout de 2 jours. Très satisfaite
