I know making kombucha can seem intimidating at first, but it really is a simple process as long as you have patience! :) Please let me know your tips and tricks to making kombucha, I always love to hear what other people do differently.

Hmm..so just skip second fermentation. I was wondering about that. Trying to knock the sugar off as I was wearing a CGM and it did shoot up the glucose. I'm on maybe my 5th batch. The one using mango puree is easily my favorite but I know that' has to be high in sugar. Tasty though!

Cool! But hard to know when it becomes keto.

So true!

I'm on keto and just bought my first SCOBY, a very informative video, thanks very much!

@thinkketo9202 4 года назад

Thank you, that's great to hear!!! If your scoby doesn't work out, shoot me an email and I'll send you one of mine, I have so many babies!

It takes a little patience to wait for it to ferment, but well worth it!

I add ice (filtered water ice) to my warm tea/sugar liquid to cool it down fast. Works a treat, just remember to leave enough room for the ice when adding the filtered water at the beginning. I also add Soda water to the kombucha if it tastes a little strong before I drink it. Thanks for the extended fermentation tip to reduce the sugar content. Happy fermenting 😄

@laurielamoureux5219 3 года назад

Can't you add berries or keto friendly fruits ? or fruit tea?

@thinkketo9202 3 года назад

As I talked about in the video, if you are doing a second fermentation, that is where you can add fruit if desired. I have never done this as it adds more sugar to it and that does not fit into my lifestyle. If this is something you would like to do, then after the initial fermentation, you would bottle the kombucha up and add desired fruit to the bottles and ferment again for 3-7 days in a cabinet or other dark location.

Very long winded. Need to cut this short to about 2 minutes. The rest was just filler. This is why you only have that many subs. People don't have time for all this. Also you need more info. You should've gotten the test strips formthe video. You say it's low sugar but I do t think so. That probably has a ton of sugar still.

What’s your favourite kambucha? Thanks for the video and info :)

@thinkketo9202 4 года назад

I prefer oolong tea when making kombucha. Green tea is a close second though. Thank you for the kind comment, I glad it was helpful for you. Feel free to email me if you need a SCOBY, I have a bunch of babies growing quite large.

What about adding Monkfruit sweetener?

@thinkketo9202 4 года назад

I often use monkfruit in other recipes, but would not recommend it for making kombucha. Although I have not tried it personally, the SCOBY eats sugar, and as monkfruit is not their natural food source, I'm not sure they would eat it and ferment the tea. I have wondered myself though if it would work. Researching it online seems to point to not using it however. If you do try it out, let me know how it goes!

@laurielamoureux5219 3 года назад

@@thinkketo9202 I think he means after fermentation - maybe right before you drink to add some sweetness??

@thinkketo9202 3 года назад

Thank you for the clarification. I personally never add additional sweetener, but after fermentation, I can't see why it would be an issue if that's something you want

@hamad1979 3 года назад

Thanks for the video,, is it ok to use a half cup of sugar instead of 1 cup? I like my beverages not sweet at all.

@thinkketo9202 3 года назад

The SCOBY eats the sugar over the fermentation period. I would not lessen the sugar in this as that is the food source for them. In the end, it really isn't sweet at all, that is why some people do a second fermentation with fruit, sometimes adding more sugar or honey to the bottle, to add sweetness. The longer you let it ferment, the more vinegary it tastes as more sugar is eaten out and more fermentation happens. Hope this helps!

@hamad1979 3 года назад

@@thinkketo9202 Yup... Thanks a lot .. appreciate it.

@identityrefused486 2 года назад

i use 2/3 cup cane sugar per gallon and it works just fine. but in the end it still has some sweetness even after 2.5 weeks fermenting to it so I'm extremely doubtful that all the sugar is eaten. i have about 15 scobys now. even after 2 months on the counter with no sugar added, the liquid they are in continues to grow more scobys.

Where can we buy a scoby to start making Kombucha?

@tbone5040 Год назад

I started mine with just sweet tea and added half a bottle of commercial kombucha,in this case GT.If it has live culture it will eventually grow a scoby.Keep in warm place

@TheWolverine1984 3 года назад

Isn't 3 week fermented kombucha too acidic?

@thinkketo9202 3 года назад

As stated in the video, I ferment mine for 2-3 weeks to reduce the final amount of sugar. Do it to your taste. I would check it starting at 10 days and bottle it when it is to your liking.

@TheWolverine1984 2 года назад

@@thinkketo9202 I taste after 3 or 4 days and it's super sour. But I live in a warm climate.
