I saw kombucha drinks at the store the other day kind of wanted to try it but now that i see how its made that scoby thing looks like pig intestine🤢🤢and the drink looks like it tastes like pickled pig intestines😫😫
I Still don’t understand where you get or how you make the scoby. It seems nobody can show us how to make it without having some quantity of commercial product. Very frustrating!
Scobys usually look nicer than that. Hers looks really like gunk. The one I make at home is a nice flat piece that looks like a silicon sheet.
I usually continue to brew the next batch in the current bottle so I don’t move the scoby with bare hands. I think they move it around too much and introduce lots of bacteria from the hand. Also it’s best to throw away scoby after 4 fermentation. Hers look really like snot.
Hello! First of all, thank you for your helpful video. I have a question, maybe you or someone can help me. I made kombucha tea and let it sit for 10 days. After I unveiled the jar the color of the tea wasn't so yellow as yours. Mine was a light brown. Where do you think I messed up? Is it too much black tea? Is it too much sugar? I should let it sit for 14 days? Thank you.
Getting a pellicle is largely unnecessary – the actual SCOBY is the starter tea (already fermented kombucha). The pellicle may contain a small amount of yeast and bacteria, but it's not absolutely necessary. So long as you have some good, strong starter tea, you're good to go!
Can you also use COFFEE or CHOCOLATE for the CAFFEINE? Can you make a SCOBY with standard industrial PROBIOTICS and YEAST? Finally, can you use FRUITS instead of the sugar in the FIRST, (main) fermentation?
I drink kombucha and I never knew it is basically the excretions from an organism that looks like it's from Planet X. That said, it tastes nice so I'll keep on! 😄👍🏼
I know this is random and weird but while I am watching you in my phone I’m watching the avatar movie and you look just like Ang. Or even more like Ang that the kid in the movie no offense.

Doorbell 5 am in the morning – "yo hommie have some scoby?"
Popular with hippies? Or grandmothers in eastern part of the world?

What VOLUME of water do you use here for 1 cup of sugar?

That scoby looks like shit, also no, it doesn't like to be touched and your hands must be squeaky clean
Are you talking about scooby doo??
I made it with green tea and it came out just fine
Step 1. Know somebody who has made kombucha and has a scoby. If you don't know anyone then you're shit outta luck.
Measurements?
can we get married just because I want your surname Lov 😎 would LOVe it
How long does the scoby last ? do u recyle the scoby in new tea each time to make an new batch ?
I started drinking this for 2-3 months, and I got rid of my pollen allergies
Or I just got lucky this year and didn’t get allergies
How does this become healthy with 200gm of sugar in it ?
pretty cool
Oh she's pretty
Tbh I had a bad experience with it and the last time I drank a bottle I felt nauseous for a while and vomit multiple times which was very painful 🤢
So SCOBY is doing the same thing that STD does?
Black Tea is green tea that has been Roasted, burned, blackened. So pretty sure green tea also has caffeine.
It tastes good and shit… but why tfff the chicken breast 😭💀

I'm out when she said hippies.
Saw two wild scoby yesterday while fishing. They are fast man 👨

You also need some starter from a previously fermented batch….that wasn't in your recipe?

Hello, I know this is random but do you know how to package kombucha for longer shelf life without refrigeration? Thank you
