Guest guest Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Hello everyone! Just riniging in to let everyone know that I have a wealth of extra scoby(Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeasts) which is the starter for making kombucha tea. For those who don't know, kombucha tea is a fermented drink that you make with a starter like sour dough bread or yogurt, and each time you make a new brew it produces a new scoby. I have about 18 new scoby and I just hate to throw them out when I could share them. I DO NOT charge for the scoby, I do ask you to cover the S & H on it. I ship it Priority Mail with instructions. You will have it in a couple of days and can get started on tea making right away. You will have new " baby " scoby in as little as 1 week. You will be able to share scoby with family and friends after a few weeks. If you want to get one sent to you, just email me at welovekefir@... and give me the address that you want it shipped to. I have water kefir grains also, if you may be interested in those. I have a few milk kefir grains, too. I am literally being over-run with scoby so if you want them please email soon. Thanks for listening to me ramble on. Here is a link to some info on kombucha. http://w3.trib.com/~kombu/FAQ/index.shtml http://users.chariot.net.au/~dna/Makekefir.html#Kefir-d-acqua These are not my sites but they have a good FAQ area so you can look into it more if you need to.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 I used to drink Kombucha tea and make it regularly. I think it caused my candida even though I've read it helps it. It's just too sweet. --- Yaphey <welovekefir@...> wrote: > Hello everyone! > Just riniging in to let everyone know that I have a > wealth of extra > scoby(Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeasts) > which is the starter > for making kombucha tea. > For those who don't know, kombucha tea is a > fermented drink that you > make with a starter like sour dough bread or yogurt, > and each time > you make a new brew it produces a new scoby. > I have about 18 new scoby and I just hate to throw > them out when I > could share them. > I DO NOT charge for the scoby, I do ask you to cover > the S & H on it. > I ship it Priority Mail with instructions.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Hi! Thanks to everyone for the replies. I was able to share most of my cultures and I hope you all enjoy them. For anyone else interested, I only have milk kefir grains and kombucha scoby left. There are no more water crystals for a few more weeks. Have a happy and healthy week everyone. Here's to our health!

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 , If the kombucha was sweet then it had not ripened or fermented long enough. It has to ferment until it is no longer sweet. This could take anywhere from 7-21 days depending on the amount of tea and sugar you have used. Thanks to everyone for the replies.
