I can't get over how your recipe only calls for 100g of sugar per US gallon... I'm going to try an amended batch to see what difference I get, thanks (as always). Over here in the UK I use 2 liter jars for my camomile booch and red-bush booch (one jar per type) and for the last 7 months I've been using a recipe that calls for about 1 cup of sugar per gallon (which I adjust from 3.8 liters to 2 liters...therefore using a bit over half a cup per jar). Next batch I do I'll try the lower sugar version with one of my scoby's from it's hotel in a third jar, thanks again. Oh, and our three favourite 2nd ferm flavours are either mango, strawberry and mint, or, passion fruit.😀

Hey thanks! So it can be hard to tell, that's why i tend to reuse kombucha bottles or fliptop beer bottles from a home brew store. The ones you get at craft stores, dollar tree, or other cheap places are "decorative" and are generally made with thin glass that will break. But online you can google pressure rated bottles and should find some good options. Or just use plastic bottles!

@thebrusho make large batches and keg your kombucha? I’m looking to starting kegging my batches because we drink so much. I’m wondering if it’s better to do the first ferment, add the fruit let it sit for a few days, strain it and then keg it OR do the first ferment, and just put the fruit in a bag or something in the keg ?
@TheBruSho
@TheBruSho 3 года назад
I would say go for the 2nd option. That way you can drink faster and it won’t over ferment. It’s a great idea I hope to upgrade to kegging the booch soon!

@@TheBruSho we have kegged two batches now. We have been putting the finished kombucha in the keg and the adding a muslin bag with our fruit additions straight to the keg and that has been working very well for us. We hook it up to CO2 at 3 PSI for about 48hrs and by that time the flavors have infused and it’s good and carbonated. Although the last batch we kegged we decided it was at an appropriate carbonation level after only 24hrs at 30psi. Pineapple ginger is our go to with a greens be black mix! Tried out first batch of straight green with watermelon and mint but it left a little to be desired. The watermelon flavor didn’t come through well and the tea wasn’t quite as strong as we like it. More experimenting ahead!
