Hi, Mari,

No, Kombucha must not necessarily be brewed in glass.

You seem to have a treasure there : A clear glazed porcelain jar ...

The fact that it has a spigot, points to a previous use for brewing.

Is it easy to reach into? I should only use it if it has a wide enough

neck to reach in for cleaning and removing/adding scobys.

This sounds like the ideal vessel for continuous brewing.

Porcelain is very hard and non-porous, non-reactive and should be ideal

for brewing.

Let us know how you are getting on, Mari,

kombuchalissimi,

Margret:-)
