RE: kombucha and neighbors

[Guest guest]

Yeah, I tried to share mine with my neighbors, the woman next store started

to dry heave when I showed her the SCOBY. Sigh. The one a few doors down

just had a look of complete disgust. Ah well. I tried to share. :-) I just

told them they shouldn't look in my kitchen if that grosses them out. LOL.

I think having a neighbor who brews kombucha is a wonderful way to

learn and connect, for anyone. More than a year ago, I gave my

neighbor a kombucha culture, and since then we've enjoyed many hours

of conversation about brewing. While I keep my brews plain and

simple, she loves to experiment. I once saw her " laboratory, " which

included over 20 different kinds of brews and detailed notes on each

of them! Also nice to know that there's always a source of a backup

SCOBY.

Way to go, MArge, for your caring and youthful spirit! And I do hope

you find a " kombucha buddy " , too, as Margret suggested.

You need to first hook them on Kombucha before ever showing the

culture!!!

ROFL! Guys I almost never use e-acronyms, but this one really had me going.

Too funny! I guess beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.

I've tried it on 3 peole, my girlfriend says if you can make it taste like

chocolate I'll give it a try. My other girlfriend says " this looks like a

urine speciman " and another says " I can't get it past my nose " Oh well

guess they like the taste of High blood pressure medicine, insulin, etc....

I just tell them to read up on it and get back to me...

I just keep making my brew because I sure do feel better drinking my

kombucha tea....

Most of my neighbors (and family for that matter!) won't even consider

tasting most of what I have. When we made dinners for a family who just had

a baby, the recipient neighbor expressed her surprise at how " normal " the

foods were that I made for them. I made chili and chicken pot pie, lol. I

really don't know what they think I eat. I suppose the surprise is that it

doesn't come out of a box!

My son (he is 7 years old) talks to other kids/people about the various

things we have going on in our kitchen. He used to go around telling people

his mom had worms when he was 4 and we had a worm composting bin, LOL. Kids

seem more fascinated by the various things brewing than the adults. Adults

look at him like he is speaking a foreign language when he started talking

about SCOBY's and kefir and what not. He actually introduced it to a friend

of mine who is an herbalist when he was 5. She thought it was a riot that he

was schooling her in how to brew kombucha and kefir! LOL.

Ah the things we teach our children.

I tried weak tea K on a couple of friends (weak tea as I'm new at this

and wanted to see how a new SCOBY would form better than they have been

in regular strength tea). Told them it was fermented tea as these

friends like to drink, and they liked it. have told them the good it can

do them too. Will give them more the next time I see them. Get them

hooked on the taste before I show them how to make their own, and then

give them a new white pristine looking SCOBY ;-)
