Do they make a difference in brew time etc? What have your ambient temperatures been like in your brewing room? Cooler temps lead to thinner SCOBYs.

Is it still good, or has the taste deteriorated in any way? Is the KT getting too sour too quickly? I don't believe that your problem has anything to do with any particular strain, but has to do with the balance of your brew between the yeasts and bacteria. Anyway, Len's site is a very good trouble shooting site: http://www.geocities.com/kombucha_balance/ Read it and try to apply the appropriate remedies. Tell us about your experience.
