Happy Kombucha Medium Kombucha Scoby

This thing is a true Kombucha factory. It has arrived promptly and well packaged with good instructions attached. (however I do 2 fermentations rather then just one - with added fruit juices/smooothies for the second fermentation). Having started off with one of these, now -after a month- I am brewing in 3 jars already and I'm planning on expanding it into 5 within next 2 weeks. These SCOBY really like sugar..so if you're generous these colonies will definitely grow on you ;) When it comes to the benefits of Konbucha..I am not a person new to superfoods, so for me it's like to a 'normal' consumer talking about the benefits of having a cereal for breakfast (ie it's obvious that what you put inside of your system will end up manifesting it self into your physical and mental reality...kombucha is not excluded to this as it does add properties to the liquid). I'm a grain/dairy free eggetarian (I do eat eggs-as the only animal product in my diet),mostly consume fruit/veg smoothies and health supplements. Kombucha is something I really like in my diet and can't stop drinking it - fermenting it at home just ads to feeling great about drinking kombucha ;)

I bought this scoby in October 2018 but have waited a while to write a review so that I could comment honestly on the product. First impressions were very good.The scoby was very well packaged and arrived as described, a good-sized creamy white, thick disk suspended in a pouch of liquid. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. Second impressions were even better. Kept in my airing cupboard my single scoby grew so fast that I had to get more jars and divide the layers up. I now (Jan 2019) have five 2 litre jars on the go each capped with a thick white scoby. Kept warm these things really grow fast and the kombucha produced is lovely, particularly when bottled and carbonated with a little fruit juice. If, like me, you've never grown a scoby before I would recommend you buy from this company.

That was my first SCOBY I bought so I was a bit unsure of how it would work out. The instruction you get is handy and helps a lot for the first batch. It is really easier than I thought and when you get used to it you get also more comfortable with brewing your own Kombucha. The SCOBY I got was great and it already has made a second baby. It comes with the starter liquid which is handy. I can only recommend giving it a try!

Brand new brewer here. Didn't know the slightest thing about kamboucha or fermentation except that I love the taste and health benefits and wanted to make it myself. I followed the directions included in the packet to the letter, and 14 days later I have perfect tasting kamboucha, ready for second stage fermentation to carbonate. Not only is the scoby very healthy, but it made a second, equally as healthy scoby. Couldn't have asked for more. Thanks!

SCOBY was as advertised and came with very useful instructions and enough liquid to make first brew. I have been brewing my kombucha for a few months now and as this SCOBY comes from a commercial brewer, I am told this is why it brews very fast, in about 4 days. I make about 2 pints every 4 days, and no matter what I try my kombucha is far from delicious and is quite vinegary. We have to water it down quite a bit and I also add natural flavourings, such as organic hibiscus flowers, but still rather too vinegary. I feel I need to find someone to give me a scoby that is not a commercial super fast producer. I follow a couple of Kombucha Facebook groups and it looks like other people manage to make all sorts of different tasting kombucha. I'm quite sad that I am not yet able to enjoy the delicious kombucha that others do, or like I can buy in a store. The SCOBY has produced quite a lot of other SCOBY's, and I have encouraged friends with pets to take them as apparently very good for pets. When I have over brewed my kombucha, I use the liquid for a very effective weed killer. It is excellent for that.

Super easy and detailed instructions for use. On my 3rd batch and scoby all ready doubled up. Taste is fantastic and I’ve already recouped original cost. Great company to deal with. Would definitely recommend and will happily buy from again

Came quickly, it came in an air tighten bag with some juice to start you off, it came with instructions and websites, the best thing about this product is that you can store it away and if you've not got all your equipment, you can get them together, (you need a glass 1/12 -2gallon jar, don't use plastic or ceramic as the chemicals will be absorbed into your tea. And no steal top (needs air) use cloth string or elastic band, let it do it stuff for around 16 days taste it, if it's still sweet it's not ready, it needs to taste like cider vinegar, (but you can stop the process at anytime for taste-or to get used to it/ you'll need water (filtered is best, or boiled and let cooled, pour into your glass jar, put Scoby in, put clean cloth/rag, put string or elastic band around the top and put where you won't disturb the Scoby, not too hot nor cold. Also there are more experienced people on YouTube take a look at some videos to make sure, hope this helps.

It is all a matter of taste. For example, I cannot stand any red wine as it tastes like vinegar to me so I should have guessed that I wouldn't like the taste of this. Gutted really as it is really healthy and so much cheaper than probiotic drinks (which is made from collecting bacteria off human poo yuk!). So do give it a try as if you like it then you can get all the health benefits too. Even if you are not keen on the taste you can still brew and then leave it in a bottle for a couple of year to use as vinegar. This arrived promptly and came well packaged so there were no leaks. You do need white sugar for this and water but that is it. Unless you want to get fancy and use different herbal teas just make sure they are cool when you add them to you Komubcha as it is a living thing and will not appreciate being scolded.

Ich habe zum ersten mal einen Kombucha bestellt und war doch erstaunt über die gummiartige Konsistenz des gelieferten viereckigen Fladens. Aber da die Bedienungsanleitung gut geschrieben und einfach ist, habe ich mich daran gehalten und siehe da, in einem runden Glas wird die nächste Lage rund und der Kombucha lecker :-) Die Anleitung ist auf englisch was ja heutzutage kein Problem mehr sein sollte, ich schreibe es nur als Info hier dazu.

Per un neofita del kombucha come me è stato un successo al primo the si è formato un nuovo fungo enorme. Quindi direi aspettative confermate

Muy buen producto, estoy feliz con mi scoby. Lo compré hace ya algunos meses y se ha reproducido increíblemente. Viene muy bien empaquetado y las instrucciones son muy claras y precisas. Lo recomiendo muchísimo!!

Der Scuby war doppelt wasserdicht verschweist verpackt und recht kühl. Die Ware ist hygienisch und sogar optisch ansprechend. Ich habe im ersten Ansatz lediglich 2Liter Kombucha zubereitet da der Scuby erst bei mir "ankommen" sollte. Jetzt habe ich schon 3Liter plus dem Rest vom vorheringen Kombucha angesetzt. Klappt ganz gut.

Viene bien envuelto y aunque lleva poco líquido iniciador he conseguido un kombucha muy rico y efervescente
