These are my 7 gallon-size jars, which I keep in rotation to brew us a continuous supply of Kombucha. The photo reveals various stages. The three jars furthest to the left are the most mature. The mushroom is floating at the top and you can see the youngest parts (the lighter, almost white colored) growing [...]

Back in May, I began making Kombucha, under the tutelage of a good friend.
I’ve experimented with different natural sweeteners, such as agave, honey, and molasses, and combinations of the three. The molasses comes on too strong, but I haven’t yet used it in a smaller amount. At this point, I am using either: all agave, all [...]

It is maybe too soon to tell, but we think we are already experiencing benefits from drinking Kombucha. Jeff is the one who is seeing the difference.

As with any experiment I undergo, my first attempt begs for improvement!
The Kombucha (half honey-half molasses) was too tart by the time we started drinking it. Now this could be because there wasn’t enough sweetener at the beginning, or because I let it go too long. Jeff and I both wanted to see how tart we [...]

I visited my friend’s house on Friday and tasted her Kombucha. It was awesome. I can’t tell you how many times we’ve desired a nice drink like Kombucha. It was fizzy, sweet, tangy… just delicious! To think that it has all the health benefits it has. Well, we are excited. She gave me my own [...]
