Kombucha Brewing Instructions

Michelle Genttner

Hi there! Ever wanted to brew kombucha at home? It's simpler than you think. 

Kombucha is just sweet tea that's been fermented until it's fizzy and tangy. The SCOBY (a mix of bacteria and yeast) makes this transformation happen. Imagine brewing a large pot of tea, adding cane sugar, cooling it down, and then letting the SCOBY do its thing. The SCOBY is also called the mother, the mushroom, and the pellicle.

Brewing kombucha is about experimenting and adjusting to get the taste you like. Each batch allows you to explore different flavours, making your kombucha unique. Plus, you'll grow a new SCOBY with every batch, so you can keep brewing or share with friends. This process combines creativity and science, making kombucha brewing truly special.
