Re: Using fruit juice concentrate when bottling

[Guest guest]

I think I read that people put things into ice cube trays and freeze in

tablespoon sizes in baggies for later use. even purees.

I only use several Tbs.of the concentrate every time I am bottling

Kombucha,(every 10- 12 days), would the rest of concentrate go bad?

After all, it will take many weeks to use up the concentrate in the

kombucha, and there is no preservative in the concentrate. I realize

I can use up the concentrate right away to make regular juice, except

that I don't necessarily drink that much currant or jerry juice.

What do other people do?

Thanks,

Hi,

I keep my fruit concentrates on the door of the refrigerator and add a

teaspoon or more right into the glass of Kombucha. That way I don't

disturb the Kombucha I am brewing, or even in the bottle, but just add

whichever flavor I like at the time I am going to drink it. I also add

fruit juice such as Pomegranate or Grape once in awhile too. Yum!

Peace, Love and Harmony,

I had to freeze the malt I purchased since it came in such a large amount. (for

making homemade colonial recipe for yeast, for sourdough)

Oh, yes the freezing I read about was for using the concentrates in cooking in

small amounts.

Thank you all for your helpful ideas.

Not wanting to kill the vitamin content of the fruit concentrate

while freezing, I think I will keep in in the fridge and use more of

it as I go in my kombucha.
