Those really cool Kombucha jars: amzn.to/2StNgBN
Is it possible that you can make perfect kombucha at home? Well, many people love the kombucha I make. They tell me that it is way better than most store bought kombucha. You can brew kombucha at home too. I have several videos on the subject. In fact, one of my videos has been called the best kombucha video on RU-vid! wow, what a compliment. In this video I was about to just tackle this project on my own at home and thought I'd put another video together for you to answer some popular kombucha questions. I hope it helps you on your journey!
Another goal for this video was to chat with you about my year... 2018. It was a good year and you helped make it that way. Thank you.

Thanks for the confidence boost ! I have a two gallon SCOBY hotel and a one gallon motel. I need to make more Kombucha soon. I've been going through some serious health issues which caused some depression as of late. But because of videos like yours, they have helped bring me back to my semi-normal self. Thank you! ♡

My mom and I have been making kombucha for almost 2 yrs. I love second fermenting. I have used my old scobis in my 🍅 plants. Also have dehydrated and made into dog chews for my friends dogs. Also just as a tip. I use a coffee filter to place on top of my kombucha gallon jars while fermenting, with a rubber band, so I can write the date and what tea I used. Very helpful! I don't have success with black tea so I use green teas or white teas different flavors. I also keep a little extra starter tea with an extra scobi in a small glass jar just in case I need or a friend needs. Kombucha has Sooooo many health benefits! Success to all who venture on this path!!! It's fun!

First time seeing this...I’ve been home brewing for about 5 years now. The only additional comment I would make is douse everything that touches the brew or Scoby (utensils, crock, bottles, spoon, even your hands) with vinegar. This will prevent any contamination. Also, worms in my worm bin love old Scobys. Happy brewing!

Love this video and your detailed explanation! Could you give a link to the bottles you bought from Amazon? Also do you plan to drink directly from these bottles? If so, your method of cleaning them? Dishwasher or vinegar solution? Please let us know your opinion of these bottles once your second fermentation is completed. Did they break? Did they provide good carbonation for your Kombucha? I heard that the vessel washed in the dishwasher may have some dishwasher liquid soap inside the vessel so it’s a good idea to rinse with filtered water before using.

@daddykirbs 5 лет назад

I will give a review of the bottles for sure. The link should be in the description. I do rinse the jars with vinegar after the dishwasher.

@timbrophy 5 лет назад

These jars should be burped to avoid a dangerous explosion. I use large Gatorade bottles because they’re safe, strong, and you can see the lid swell and feel the hardness of the bottle when it’s expanded quite a bit, letting you know it either needs to be refrigerated or burped (open the cap slightly to release a little gas).

You may want to burp your second ferment jars after a few days.

Scared the crap out of me and got the kombucha all over the place on books and other random things on the shelf.

Feed the scoby to the chickens. I cleared out my hotel and then for the first time ever ( I've been making kombucha for 3 yrs) my scoby got mold on it. So had to throw everything out. And of course it happened after clearing out the hotel lol. So had to buy a new scoby. I figure once every 3 yrs isn't bad. I have a new batch brewing now. My favorite is pear and ginger. I haven't tried black cherry so will have to try it. I have chronic bladder infections. I would get one every 2 to 3 months. After I started drinking kombucha I only had 1 infection 6 months after starting kombucha then none since. My Dr thought it was odd lol. Apparently kombucha will kill off the bad stuff in the bladder that even antibiotic could kill off completely.

@nicolep2424 4 года назад

No need to buy a scoby. Make one to two gallons from one bottle of GT's original kombucha. I usually use a cup and a half. Your new scoby will form more beautiful than ever. All for about three bucks. In fact, about half time I don't use a scoby, just starter.

@WCiossek 5 лет назад

You can find them outside in the nature! If very sweet fruits are have a hurt skin where the juice is coming out, a scopy is sometimes growing there if no rain is washing them away! But you don't need it really. If you take juice from fruits with sugar and let it stay under aerob conditions, it startet to fermantate, because yeasts and vinegar bacterias are everywhere. So the juice fermentate directly to Kombucha and later to vinegar! Kombucha is simply a thin mild vinegar, which turns to strong vinegar, if you let it fermentate for a very long time! Some insects like Drosophila melanogaster contaminate juices with Kombucha- or vinegar organism, which are mixture of yeasts and vinegar bacterias like Acetobacter xylinum and others!

Hi! 1 cup of sugar how much gramm? And how many days is ready the tea? Thank for your answer.😊

@daddykirbs 5 лет назад

1 cup = 225g = 8 oz. The number of days depends on a lot of variables, but if you are starting from a good 1st ferment the time from brewing black tea to drinking flavored Kombucha could be 10 to 12 days.

I'm busy with my first Kombucha batch....when I made my first "scoby" it was in a small consol jar about 330ml jar and now I made 3 litres of tea in a 3 litre jar so obviously the scoby is tiny in that huge jar of tea... How long do you suggest will it take my "scoby" to ferment the tea to that "sweet spot"?

@daddykirbs 5 лет назад

It's so hard to say for sure how long your batch will take. I'd start tasting it around 5 days to learn the timing in your conditions.

@feliciaannandalemeyer6418 5 лет назад

Thank you so much!!! I watched one video where you mentioned something about mold forming on the scoby, how do I prevent mold?

Pineapple in my second ferments gives me the best fizz.

@Azhang22 4 года назад

You use actual pineapple bits or just the juice?

@nicolep2424 4 года назад

Diced strawberry and diced mango are two other really nice fermenters

@@nicolep2424 I havent tried those yet, but I put diced pineapple and the it came out with a bad smell. It still tasted fine just the smell was bad. Is that normal?

@daddykirbs 5 лет назад

Our local grocery is called H.E.B. ... that's where I buy most of my juice for Kombucha.

One does Not have to dehydrate it before consuming, I eat the extras fresh & raw. They're tough but still edible and Great post workout food.

HEY awesome video, I followed every single step. After creating from scratch my own scoby which it took me about 3 weeks, I started making first fermentation of kombucha, around the 7th day I wanted to try a sip/taste to see if I like it enough to start my second fermentation and I found a little tiny bug stuck to the top of the new layer of scoby,I was shocked considering that I covered w cheese cloth and rubber band tightly. I wonder if it was okay to just remove a piece of the top layer of the scoby and continue with the fermentation for a few more days ? I checked the original scoby which was underneath the new layer of the scoby and it seems to be okay but I wonder if the little tiny flying bug had already ruined the whole jar of kombucha? ugghhh so UPSET after making my own scoby and then that happened.

@daddykirbs 5 лет назад

I'm not so uptight about things like that. Some people would toss the batch, but if it's just one little fruit fly I might just pick it out and keep going. It's up to you.

@sebastianarielburd3119 5 лет назад

thanks, I was afraid that maybe there were other fruit flies floating in the fermented tea, thanks again

@timbrophy 5 лет назад

I find that cheese cloth mesh is too wide, letting bugs in. So you either have triple or quadruple layer it, or better yet use a clean t-shirt, or pillowcase. I’ve used both with success. Then I bought some $1 neckerchiefs from Walmart.

In my original kombucha video ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-23P7QqsjEMw.html ) I share how I put it in the pantry for 3 or 4 days, then the refrigerator for at least a day. That's a normal second ferment for me.
