Today we're going to dive into how to BREW YOUR OWN KOMBUCHA AT HOME. Last week I showed you how easy it is to make a KOMBUCHA SCOBY at home to brew your own KOMBUCHA TEA, and this week we're going to make our first batch of tea that we can drink. I
The process is pretty simple so let me show you how. Before you know it, you'll be brewing your own tea and gifting your SCOBYs to friends and family. Scroll down to see the shopping list.

**** RECIPE for 1/2 gallon of Kombucha ****
8 cups of FILTERED water
4-6 tea bags (tea of your choice- I prefer black tea)
1/2 cup organic cane sugar
1 healthy SCOBY
1 cup of starter liquid from a batch of already fermented kombucha or store-bought
**** RECIPE for 1 gallon of Kombucha ****
16 cups of FILTERED water
6-8 tea bags (tea of your choice-can add more depending on how strong you like your tea)
1 cup of organic cane sugar
1 healthy SCOBY
1 cup of starter liquid from a batch of already fermented kombucha or store-bought
**** HOW TO start your FIRST BATCH OF KOMBUCHA ****
1. Grab a pot and add 8 cups of FILTERED water to it.
2. Bring your water almost to a boil.
3. When water is almost to a boil, shut the heat off and add 4-6 tea bags.
4. Let tea steep 5-10 minutes. You can steep longer if you prefer stronger flavored tea.
5. After your tea is done steeping, remove the tea bags, and discard them into your compost.
6. Add 1/2 cup of organic cane sugar to the hot tea. Stir until fully dissolved.
7. Set your sugar/tea mixture off to the side until at room temp (adding your SCOBY or starter liquid to HOT tea will KILL YOUR CULTURE). I usually brew my tea and then wait a full 24 hours before adding my SCOBY. But as long as your tea is fully cool it will be fine.
8. After your tea has come to room temperature, add 1 cup of starter liquid either from a previous batch of KOMBUCHA or from a store-bought brand. You'll need to do this for every batch of kombucha so I recommend removing your starter liquid from your batch of kombucha BEFORE BOTTLING that way you don't forget and then end up having to buy some as I did in this video :(
9. Add your mature kombucha SCOBY to your tea, sugar, and starter liquid.
10. Cover your tea (not with cheesecloth) and set out of direct sunlight and preferably someplace it won't be disturbed for 7-10 days.
11. After the 7-10 days, you should see a new SCOBY formed on the top of your brew. At this point, you can taste a bit of your tea. If it was still really sugary tasting, let is sit and ferment another 1-3 days. The amount of time it will take to brew your kombucha varies on the temp of your house. Taste frequently after the initial 7-10 day period until the desired flavor is achieved.
NEXT WEEK, I'll show you how to flavor your kombucha. If you prefer plain, you can drink your tea as is.
