It's to 8 days now and there is definitely a different smell coming from my under stairs cupboard. my first batch began with a brand new Scoby without a reasonable amount of nutrient just some Apple Cider Vinegar to give it a boost. Well this batch has had the left overs, about 200ml from the bottom of my container to give it a good start. With the addition of the new arrival, the baby Scoby, both seem very happy and hence the lovely smell. I've taken a sample and tested using my Ph strip(see my testing bellow) and it changed straight away to yellow. So it will be back to bottling and preparing for my next batch.
Kombucha: a Fermentation of sweet Green Tea with a Symbiotic Colony of Bacteria and Yeast (Scoby). A beverage that has roots back over 2000years spanning from Eastern Europe to the far reaches of China. It's benefits to the human body both spiritually and physically have many scientific and anecdotal evidences that make it a remarkable drink and it costs less than a can of pop to make.
