kombucha Tea

•  Kombucha Mushrooms – (also known as a kombucha culture or kombucha SCOBY)
• 1 cup of kombucha mushroom starter tea
• 1 cup organic sugar – you can use white sugar but make sure it says “cane sugar”
• Four to Six tea bags
• Breathable cover – (you can use a simple paper towel or handkerchief and will allow fruit flies in your brew
• rubber band to fasten the cloth cover over the kombucha brewing vessel.
• Water
• Kombucha brewing vessel – glass,

 Boil 4 cups water and make a tea using 6 teabags in a teapot. allow ti steep 10 -15 minutes and pour into the bowl add the sugar and stir.  (2 or three qt glass bowl or crock pot or a gallon jar) then  fill with water to make 2 qts.  stir, when cool add the mushroom and starter liquid Cover with your breathable cover and secure with the rubber band.  Place in a slightly warm, dark and ventilated place – open closet is good, counter top is also good but make sure it is away from smoke.. so if you burn stuff on the stove a lot, the kitchen might not be the best place.  Wait 5 to 10 days.  Your kombucha culture might sink or swim.  Either is ok, you also might notice a thin layer growing on top.  If left undisturbed this will be your new kombucha baby!   The one thing to mention is that ideally you want you Kombucha PH when you test it to be below 3.0 as this will ensure that the likely hood of pathogens or mold happening is next to none.Start off with 2 to 4oz up to 3 times a day (6 to 12 ounces total) in the morning,  with meals to help with digestion and at night. Drink plenty of water as it is a natural detoxify-er and you want to flush the newly released toxins out. 

 Personally I wait 10-14 days for it to be done
