I love the way you explain the process. I can't wait to try it!

Wow, you're always so happy, laughing, smiling and having fun together, I admire the synergy and once again learned something from y'all, thank you!

I love yalls energy. I'm definitely going to make my own at home!

Thanks for flavorings ideas, going to try something similar on the second tepache ferment.

Love u guys. Thx for ur easy to understand kombucha process

Thank you guys for such a fun and helpful video! You two are adorable together 🤍🙏🏼🫶🏼

Love how down-to-earth you guys are with your presentation and experiments. Makes it feel like a very accessible feat to accomplish.

Most helpful video of kombucha I’ve seen yet. You guys are great thanks!!

I am new to kombucha and so happy to find this channel, excited to try my 1st kombucha

I got a SCOBY today and am prepping on how to do it by watching your videos. The jalapena pinapple one seems exciting, Ill have to try that!

You two are the cutest! Thanks for making this easy to follow and inspiring how to. xo

Just wanted to thank yall I've been following your videos on how to. The first few days nothing really happened with my scoby and now I have an absolute MONSTER of a scoby in my kombucha mix right now. Seriously I can't believe how massive this scoby grew lol

I love the way you guys make your videos. I started take kombucha

Love your videos and your energy!

I've been watching some videos on how to make Kombucha and this one is my favourite because it is complete, creative and you have both a beautiful personality that makes me smile watching. Thanks. :)

Nice Video, definitely gona give this a try

I just watch your video to make my own scoby, and now I found that you guys are so cute together !!! Adorable couple ! Thanks for all the experiments and informations! Will try my experiment very soon lol and I subscribed you guys!

Thank God for u guys ! Answered every one of my questions

Good day from South Africa. I'm a big kombucha fan since finding out how easy it is to make your own brew. A friend of mine gave me a SCOBY about four months ago and I haven't looked back since! My Kombucha is delicious (far more flavourful than the store bought), very healthy (especially if you need help with your digestive system) and cost a small fraction of store bought! I am delighted with the new ideas you are coming up with regards to unusual flavours and I am definitely going to try them. Thank you for your very interesting videos and for sharing your knowledge. I have just started off on the Ginger bug program watching your videos. Struggling a bit to get the bug to wake up but I will keep going and hopefully it's just maybe the cold spell we are going through that is hindering the progress. No bubbles yet and we are on day 3 but it smells delicious and looks cloudy. So waiting to see what happens. Thank you again and keep up the good work.

I enjoyed watching you both at the same time learning. So sorry that I just started liking kombucha. Watching you from the Philippines. Thank you so much.

Well presented can’t wait to get started …day one…wish me luck…stay blessed

The best kombucha videos so far and I don't think I want to watch any other video❤

You guys are awesome, going to make mine. Ive made coconut milk kefir in the past. This is a new journey!

Yummy! my favorite flavors are Meyer lemon and ginger.

This was very helpful, thanks 💪🏽🇺🇸

thank you for the video! you explained it very well! Greetings from Colombia! :)

Wow this is great love your channel

Great info!

Really a great video! 👍

Good energies! I have batched kombucha 6 times, it's super good....

I love add in pineapple juice to my second fermentation! I’m literally about to bottle more kombucha tomorrow and I think I will grab a jalapeño for one of my pineapple bottles. I love using GT 1.4 litre bottles because I only have to bottle three bottles per gallon. Also, when the kin begins to bubble then I cold crash it for a few hours to trap the carbonation and then open it to see if it’s fizzy enough for me. I’ll never go back to swing top bottles

I love your videos, I like flavoring with raspberries, turns the kombucha a nice ruby red color

Pineapple works great, really love the taste in kombucha!

I just drank my first bottle of kombucha. I made it. It's so good, it's at room temperature. I put the rest in the frig. I've been watching your videos and you brew kombucha. I'm also making apple vinegar and orange vinegar. My husband bought me a big glass jar for my soby hotel. Thank you for you're videos and I made my soby myself.

Thank you so much for your helpful videos. I have been trying all different flavors of kombucha. The first batch was ginger lemon, but then I tried raspberry. My husband found some fresh ripe peaches and that was the best kombucha. Pineapple was really good, then we did pineapple mango and pineapple cherry. I just bottled up some dragon fruit with mango last night, hope it is good, too. It really is as easy as you show in your videos, just put the fruit in the bottom and let it sit a few days. I've also got one of my daughters-in-law helping me and happy with payment of a couple bottles to take home. She just needs to bring the empties back!!! Thanks!

I love making kombucha! I also use the scoby cut into prices in my dehydrator after soaking the scoby in a fruit juice for 24 hours. Delicious!

You guys are great. Thank you.

God bless you guys for sharing ❤🙏😇

Súper video me encantooooooo😊

This channel is so underrated. Everyone should know this healthy tips and recipes. Will surely be recommending this to my fam. Thank you for your videos. Keep em coming. 🤗💕

I'm a 40-minute old subscriber and after just watching two videos (making scoby and this video), I'm so drawn to your channel. Bingewatching from the Philippines.

You'd better believe I share your videos! I love what you do!

Literally on my 10th day too and just told my mom how light and yummy it is 🥰 this is my first brew so thank you for the tips!

I still love this video years later ❤

Made my own scoby after watching your other video and am now doing the secondary ferment. This is my first time making kombucha and you guys made what seemed like an overwhelming and complicated process simple and fun. Thanks so much, never buying store bought kombucha again!

The Pineapple Jalapeno sounds so tasty..

I watched this video like 500 times before I had to confidence to do it myself. Now I got a Continuous Brewed batch of Kombucha and will never run out! Thank you guys for the help and here's to cutting out the energy drinks

This is the video that has made me feel the most optimistic about making my own kombucha! :D When you learn about the health benefits of kombucha you want to drink it everyday, but when you have a family and you multiply that $3 bottle times many, and then again if you want to drink it multiple times a day..... it becomes a very expensive DRINK that can easily triple your food bill. (If you consider a typical family homecooked meal costing $1-5 per meal) Making it at home is a life-saver! Thank you for such a fun video!

I'm not seeing a video for the scoby hotel... I'm waiting over here on the edge of my seat guys! 👏😂💙

new sub here. you popped up on my home page an sooo happy you did!!!!

I am so excited to give an update! 😬 So my very first batch I made a couple weeks ago was strawberry lemonade Kombucha and it was pretty good. I just bottled my 2nd batch yesterday which was pineapple and mango. My tester bottle was already quite firm so I burped one of my ez cap bottles and it’s pretty carbonated. I may burp the others and let it go 1 more day. I even enjoyed the little I had left over right out of the fermenting jar! Why I never tried Kombucha until recently is a mystery lol! And homemade is SO much better and better for you! I love it and all the different flavors to play around with. Thank you again for all your knowledge and instructions on fermenting! Love your channel! 🤗❤️

“Scoby Hotel” love it!😂💕:0)

Thanks!

wish yall kept up this series!

Wow simply wow

Thanks for these videos, just wondering if you're able to do a video on how to look after. A scoby hotel? What maintenance is required etc? Thanks

I love your videos! Ready for more learning, any idea when you will start back up? How is reno going?

I am just learning how to ferment and I love your channel. Do you have a recipe for a generic fermented coke? I need something to mix with my bourbon.

You two are adorable.

I love all that you both are doing love watching you. so I'm on day two of my ginger bug and all the ginger has floated to the top but other then that it all looks great nice amount of bubbles, so I'm happy, but let me know if that's an issue. Take care love to keep watching

you both are adorable!

Kia ora from Aotearoa (New Zealand), love you guys an your channel you have opened my old eyes ,and now I want more, since I'm from Aotearoa and were called Kiwis not because of the fruit but an unusual flightless bird.......which brings me back to kiwi fruit would you lovely couple like to try making a kiwi fruit soda, I'd be very interested in your opinion Thanku and keep up the great work

Video yang sangat bermanfaat terimakasih

I am your fan from Hong Kong 🙋

Hi guys great video thank you! Im new to kombucha and your video has given me the courage to begin my first ferment. Just wondering what size bottles you are using in the video. I have 1lt swingtop bottles and just trying to work out the ratio of fresh fruit. Thank you 😊

Gracias 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I am just discovering your channel on my fermenting journey. I don't know if it's been suggested but, for serious heat lovers, the fruitiness and heat of the habanero could work well with a larger batch. I have integrated habaneros into my detox recipe and may have to with your recipe. I grew my own this year and have plenty to experiment with.

Try South African Rooibos tea it's so healthy and tastes amazing.

Hello guys, thank you for sharing this recipe. It is awesome. First time, I made Kombucha and two days ago, I flavored(secindary fermentation) it with pineapple and it turned out awesome, so delicious. But it has also formed a small baby scoby in the bottle. I don't know what should I do with this scoby. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi there! I’m new to fermentation and your videos are the best starter guide! Thank you! I have a question : what do you do with your starter tea after you have made your first scoby? I removed the Scoby to make fresh kombucha, and I don’t know what to do with the leftover tea. 😮😊

Another awesome video from both of you. Thank you. You inspire me to make this recipe and I'm making it now but I get stuck in the middle of it 😅. The starter tea I'm using is from the liquid that I make the Scoby from scratch. With this liquid there's sediment at the bottom, do I mix the solution up and take enough to use it as a starter tea or do I not mix it and just use the clear solution that's on top? Thanks in advance

I really like your videos! I have been trying to make mavi or mabi or mauby which is a fermented beverage from Puerto Rico that i grew up with that is fermented in the sun using a tea made from mavi bark along with cinnamon, ginger, and white and brown sugar. I have yet to create something I'm not afraid to drink. Lol. I don't know if you have ever heard of this or have any advice. I have been getting dark sediment that looks scary to me and not what I remember from growing up. I have been avoiding anything that doesn't smell like what remember. Any advice appreciated.

Thank you for the video again! Can I know how long is the 2nd fermentation from end to end?

Thanks

Just got my scoby and can’t wait to try your recipes 🙌🏼But how do you wash those beer bottles?

Hey Fermentation Adventure! I was the guy who requested a Kvass video a while back!. Would it be possible if you could do another video however I am curious about Banana Beer. (similar to a ginger ale or more alcoholic if you wanted.) The reason I am requesting this, is because it seems to be quite difficult to properly settle all the solids in banana. I made an amazing banana beer but it was cloudy due to the banana sediment. Maybe if I had waited longer they would have fully settled to the bottom? I'd love to see you two do a video on making a crystal clear beverage. Its an amazing desert beer and goes well with many things (like coconut icecream :) *I saw you two had that* )

Hello! You should do a video about the Scoby hotel! Also, if I am going to make kombucha, can I leave the starter tea without scoby for a week? Or should I cut my scoby in half? (one for the starter tea and other for my first kombucha batch)

Thank you for sharing your process.

Great video, just starting our fermentation journey. Did you ever make the Scoby Hotel video??

Sae pisan, abdi ti Indonesia, Bandung, Sundanes

I am very excited to start this process and I just ordered 1/2 gallon jars and lids with handles 😀 My question is... after I begin this how long before I can drink my first kombucha? Thanks guys!

Hi really enjoyed watching your videos thank you for all your tips. I am now on my first Kombucha journey, I'm doing a second fermentation with raspberries and other fruits and it looks like it's ready for refrigeration. How long will it keep in the fridge with the fruit in it (if I don't drink it all in a couple of days that is🤭) ?

i love it

Thank you for 2nd fermentation info! The scoby is not needed. Only starter tea matters. You're better of discarding it after each batch for consistency. It's simply the by-product of the yeast and bacteria doing their thing.

Waiting for the video about taking care of the Scoby. Should it be stored in the fridge or on the counter and with a lid or just a cloth?

Your the best! I bought the synergy raw kombucha but I put it in the fridge waiting till I can do the process. Did I mess it up? ❤

New subscriber.

Hey guys.. Awesome videos! I had a small doubt. How do you decide when a certain batch (of any fermented liquid) has gone bad and is not fit for consumption? Is there any test?

Thanks for sharing. How do I get first Scoby ?

Hi! This is a great video for starting with kombucha! So, for the second fermentation, is it only 2 or 3 days? How do you know that it is ready?

Great videos, quick question, how do you guys top up the Scoby Hotel? When I start a brew after having created my first scoby I took 2 cups of bucha out of the hotel with the scoby for my first brew. How would I go about topping of the scoby hotel now? Do I brew additional tea with sugar and just top it off, can I just top off with water, or do I take 2 cups out of my first brew and put it in the scoby hotel? What options are viable?

Dobyou have a video on making and maintaining a scoby hotel?

@The Fermentation Adventure What size Mason jars are you using in this video. I like the fact that it isn't the gallon size (or doesn't look like it is anyway) Thank you

I have a question, I just grew my 1 st Scoby thanks to your video. Can I use the liquid from this jar to make my Kombucha from? Nevermind I rewatched this video and you answered my question?

I'm looking for a ginger snap cookie and raisin-filled cookie flavored kombucha or ginger bug soda or water kefir. Orange creamsicle flavored kombucha or ginger bug soda or water kefir. Those nabisco lemon cooler cookies would be a great flavor too.

Hello- Great videos. On the secondary fermentation you used the kombucha plain (no fruit ,etc) and capped the bottle it and you said something like "with the carbonation added". Where did the carbonation come from?

Do you strain the fruit out after the second fermentation or does that stay in the bottle until it is all done? Do you eat the fruit?

Hi from South Africa, just want to find out, the stater you use from your scoby hotel, do you top it up with tea again, thanks for the advice, Regards Debbie

I am doing continuous brew now but I need to know if I want my kombucha to be not so sour but sweeter, does that mean there is still sugar in the sweeter version if it is a younger kombucha. I am diabetic so I do want a sweeter kombucha without added sugar. Hope that makes sense.

Do you think blueberry basil would be good. I've seen a bunch of intresting flavors
