A Kombucha SCOBY From Store Bought Kombucha

     I started my adventure into growing a SCOBY from store bought Kombucha in this post.  Fast forward to today, 8 days later. I not only have a SCOBY but I had to find a brewing vessel. I got this 3.5-liter Locking Clamp Beverage Dispenser.

 
     I've fed the baby SCOBY twice since I began this adventure and now it needs to move to the bigger container ... look isn't it cute... it needs a name, so please leave me a comment with your suggestions...

Baby SCOBY
I need a name!!

Starting Kombucha Tea from Store Bought

December 19, 2014

     I am experimenting with growing a Kombucha SCOBY from a bottle of store bought tea. One of the biggest dilemmas has been finding a brand that has the likelihood of growing the SCOBY without an issue.

     I belong to a fermenting group of Trim Healthy Mamas on Facebook that have a lot of experience in this area and they were kind enough to point me in the right direction.
     I also read a couple articles about how to go about this process and decided to follow this one. I am brewing using oolong tea.

      So let the adventure begin !!
