"knowing somebody that has it"
Better call my scoby dealer
it would take maybe a month to grow them that way. @Bill Bob
Call up Shaggy for some SCOBY Snacks
They sell it on amazon
People who make scoby are more willing to share for free of charge.
@Sustainable Tips Send me some scoby dude. No wait, you might have the Rona, never mind, don't send me anything.
if you buy a bottle of kombucha from the store you can just pour a quarter of the bottle in to your cooled sweet tea and after a week or so a scoby will develop and you will have kombucha.
Voila!!!
For sure? Just attempting today instead of hunting for scoby!
@Noah: Unless they pasteurized the commercial kombucha then all the happy little scoby critters are dead.
Handsome dude that knows about kombucha.... yes please he he
Do you close the bottle or open ?
You find the scoby right between the schkleem and the fleeb
Rick and Morty 😂😂😂
make sure you rub the fleeb first
@kungmat: Yeah, they're all in the ''Open Your Eyes Section.''
Lmao
😂😂
when adding a scoby to a new batch of brewed tea you must add a portion of starter liquid (already brewed kombucha) in with the scoby so that it ups the acidity levels which helps fight off unwanted bacteria. Always make sure your utensils and hands are sterilized when reaching into your brew. Bacteria on your hands can seriously mess things up which is why I recommend trying not to handle the scoby too much. Scoby's like to be undisturbed, and in a dark, warm place. If you live in colder climates you will have to use some sort of heater or nothing will happen as the scoby will go dormant.
Do you know of any videos that talk about the 2nd fermentation?
@@margaretsnyder898 ua-cam.com/video/8SOPeZWkc1k/v-deo.html
@@margaretsnyder898, this one is good: ua-cam.com/video/8SOPeZWkc1k/v-deo.html and other from his channel
That would in fact also be a very good way to proof (verify) that your kombucha from the store is still live
It does help with the acidity but the reason you add it is actually because it contains the actual SCOBY. The mushroom looking thing doesnt have enough of the live probiotics.
Instead of just putting the scoby in your room temperature sweet tea, add also a cup of the kombucha from the previous batch. It'll kick start the fermentation and keep the scoby strong and healthy.
+xTheOxx There isn't really much of a reason to transfer the pellicle anyway, the microbes carrying out the fermentation are active in the bulk liquid and not in the pellicle.
Thanks! I love seeing people posting their little tips like this 😊 I bought a scoby off ebay today and now just waiting for it to arrive so that I can start brewing. Tips like this are super helpful 💜
Nice tip! This will totally make me drink foul fermented hippie juice instead of water! GO SCOBY!!
Curtis Fowler but it’s nice to have a pellicle as it seals the surface and helps to make your kombucha more carbonated
Curtis Fowler so you don’t need a scoby? Just the srater liquid? 🤯
"you can get it by knowing someone that has it"
super helpful stuff here
Purchase one off of amazon here: zwww.amazon.com/Organic-Kombucha-Scoby-Live-Culture/dp/B009ZW8RP4/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1466090694&sr=1-1&keywords=kombucha+scoby
thanks!
no problem!! :) im already making 3 gallons a week, more than my family and I can drink haha :)
do people wipe your ass for you too? Use your brain and figure out where to get scoby from...
+Brad Bellicose amazon
Recently i started making tepache, a Mexican drink made with fermenting pineapple skins, sugar and spices. I find it easier to make and the taste and carbonation are great too. And no need to find a scoby dealer
Kombucha is probiotic its good for your stomach which is why most drink it.
I know this video is old BUT, there a few things in here that are miss leading.
You can use green tea for kombucha, or a blend of green and black. But don’t use flavored or altered teas. And you MUST add already brewed kombucha (starter) to your tea. The “SCOBY” she is referring to is more of a bi product of the actually SCOBY and most of the bacteria and yeast are in the liquid not the SCOBY mat that is produced. You can technically brew with just starter and sweet tea, no SCOBY mat since the life force is in the liquid.
Hope this helps you on your kombucha journey!
Can we skip the sugar ?
@@Summaryofarticlesno, the sugar is essential for the fermentation process. 90% of it gets processed by the bacteria and wont be present in the final product.
Actually there is more caffein in green tea, so the whole reasoning was wrong in the first place.
@@SummaryofarticlesNope...its needed as food for the bacteria & yeast...they use it for fuel & convert it
That is exactly what I needed to hear. Tried to make a scoby around 3 weeks ago but the tea has only gone cloudy with a small amount of scoby forming in the bottom of the jar hopefully this will do for my next batch 😊
How to make kombucha:

I love this part "that hippies like and that companies make a lot of money off"
Specifically which part? the hippies part or the money 💰 part? 🤔🤭😋
Wong Bing I would say both parts because hippies are making it because they like it and they don’t really have much money to buy it and the big corporations are making it only because they can make the big bucks!
Its just a pretentious drink that tastes like shit lol .If you want the health benefits take some probiotics bro you did not discover magic just a rotting drink
@TheSunRiseKid it taste real good store bought.. I wonder if it taste that good home made
@@LishaGirli It definitely can, takes a bit of practice to get your process down and experiment with flavors. Store bought stuff at least in the US has undergo a process to reduce the natural alcohol(not high enough to get tipsy but still too high for sale) which can remove some of the health benefits as well.
but where did the first scoby come from
time travel
Lachlan / The chicken. Wait no. The egg.
Rotten tea lol.
The other side of the road.
deez nuts
My school has a class called Smart textiles and in the class we learn how to take scoby and turn it into plant leather and can use it for weaving, knitting, sewing, dyeing etc.
Seriously? wow. That's freaking cool.
Plz will u guide me what is kumbucha...I am IBS patient
You reminded me of this video: ua-cam.com/video/Ds8ZFzOwGeI/v-deo.html. Is this how you do it too?
@@saimazarshid1722 as the person in the video said, it's fermented tea
Whoa, the skoby looks like a raw chicken thigh 😨
+Mandy Chamberland I honestly thought that's what it was when the video started!!!
Can we grill it
Yeah😶
It usually looks nicer than that. Hers looks really like gunk. The one I make at home is a nice piece that looks like a silicon sheet.
I usually continue to brew the next batch in the current bottle so I don’t move the scoby with bare hands. I think they move it around too much and introduce lots of bacteria from the hand. Also it’s best to throw away scoby after 4 fermentation. Hers look really like snot.
@ABC introducing bacteria shouldn’t be a problem right? since bacteria is good in this situation 😂
My first batch made me feel so accomplished. 🎉 When I make mine now, I sweeten it after I drain the leaves. I then add flavor after the desired fermentation.
After a week of fermenting, I personally use 1lt glass bottles. I pour in 800ml of the Kombucha along with 200ml of Apple/Blackcurrent juice (with no preservatives) to give it more flavour. I leave those bottles in a dark, warm place for another week before storing them in the fridge.
So I recommend adding juice to your own Kombucha. If you do, it was to contain no preservatives or anything artificial.
So juicing your own fruit would be best?
That's not kombucha anymore 😂😂😂
I love how upfront she is about her skepticism of the bold health claims and awareness of typical consumers and commercialization of the product; I'm not sure exactly what the word is I'm looking for, but it like made me trust the video a lot more.
She seems honest, genuine, and realistic. I think one of these words is what you're looking for. :)
you are describing ‘credibility’ through the use of logos (logic) and pathos (emotion)
(shudder) Looks like a placenta, but oh, it's only giant sliver of cultured living bacteria.
Eastfist I'd rather eat a placenta, frankly.
Bacteria is used to make bread, alcohol, fermented veggies etc. Unless you've sworn off all of those things it's too late to get grossed out
You realize that you have more bacteria than you have cells? @@jre-1337
It's like growing a little alien in a glass jar...
That's kinda what it is and all life is
It's like the yolk to this dish
My mom would make this all the time when i was 3 or so. She was amazing at it! It tasted delicious but because of moving she ended up stopping a few years later. Still addicted to kombucha to this day
I cant edit the comment but i meant 4. She did it for about 2 years.
host: zoinks, scoby theres a g-g-ghost!!!
scoby: ruh-oh!
💯
can i play with ur name plz

You can make your own SCOBY by dumping a plain bottle of Kombucha in your pre-made cooled vat of sweetened tea. You will have baby scobies in a couple of weeks.
+EH CBunny Yup, but that first batch will taste awful. Dump it and start a new one with your baby scoby.
+EH CBunny You can actually start completely from scratch by just fermenting tea to get a Scoby, it's not fool-proof but it's how I started because i couldn't find a place close to where I live that sold Kombucha.
Gabrielle Martin That's risky unless you can identify fungi. The wrong fungus will make you sick. You can also buy them online
All I'm saying is I did it four years ago and have half a dozen scobys, one of which is 3 inches thick. If you're careful about the process and your environment you shouldn't have a problem.
+Gabrielle Martin You're drinking random bacteria that contaminated the original tea.
I named my scoby Felicia.... is that weird?
What
no that's respectful you're a good scoby parent
sounds like you're treating her with respect
I want to get one as a pet.
i hope u wont have to say - bye Felicia
I have a new pet now, which has expanded into may twins quite fast. But since all came from the same papa, I call all of them Scoby Doo.
what came first, the scoby or the kombucha?
The booch
Munchies is the shit because there's no bullshit trailers
And the host are great
It's funny Konbucha is something totally different drink in Japan. That one is called Koucha Kinoko 紅茶キノコ
well wtf take me to the second stage of fermentation
Steven Csenteri it's like champagne just do that.
Plenty of other videos on youtube that do this. This one was a way oversimplified version and missed a few key elements of brewing Kombucha.
I have been researching the topic like crazy so that I can brew my own once the scoby I ordered arrives.
Thank you for this information. I just had knee replacement surgery and took 5 days of antibiotics afterward. Everything is going great, but I know I need fermented foods to get my microbiome back in balance. I'm going to make cambucha today. I've already made simple sourkrout. I'm amazed at how perfect nature is and I'm grateful for the wealth of info to be found here on the internet.
I have battled depression for 25 years. If only I knew about Kombucha. It really does work.
Gut health is connected to mental health! Simply put, we’ve all been hangry before and we all know how comforting food can be.
@@daveyoon6698 😂 I was just about to comment something very similar. Thanks for beating me to it 😊.

Yeah! Also Kvass! It's all in the same boat!

Ayy kvas squad!!
+VadimkaMr especially Granny hehe , if not only..
+Keren Wang What is it?…. It looks a bit like a raw boneless chicken lol. What is it made of?
That shit looks like a placenta. I'm out.
It looks like pig ears to me. It was easier for me to drink it before I saw the scoby. >
QuangTran27
I thought it was a rotten chicken Brest fillet covered in solidified bacon grease.
i thought it was rotten cloth
It is Placenta. That why she said get some if you know anyone who has given birth..or did I misunderstand
Joseph Potch not a placenta bruv, just cultured bacteria/yeast. She mentioned the acronym early in the video somewhere
"So...the scoby you can get by knowing somebody who has it." Gee, thanks for the helpful advise. :)
Its called I did it illegally, and cant tell you how we got it
Its called I did it illegally, and cant tell you how we got it
+Chase Brown I'm not sure if you saw some of the other comments but another way to acquire a scoby is to do the sweetened tea and add a bottle of kombucha that you bought somewhere. Or if you have enough patience you can simply ferment the sweetened tea and it will eventually start growing a scoby, as long as you're careful with it.
+Gabrielle Martin &, it will form itself? Wow! It looks like it started as a solid piece of something; so, that's even crazier than I thought...& cooler.
Go to a health store and buy a bottle of unflavored kombucha look for one with weird bits on the bottom or even a thin layer on the top. Add that to sweet tea (black and never use earl grey) wait a week to a month (depending on how warm it is) you'll either have a scoby or mold

Thanks I couldnt find that anywhere.But now I know and Im a better man.
thats hot
you have the grossest looking SCOBY I've ever seen xD
Interesting. I start out the same, measuring out 4 cups of water, bringing it to a boil, adding and dissolving the 1 cup sugar, steeping 8 bags of tea. Then - we differ. I pour my strained tea into a 1 gallon glass jar, add cold, filtered water to about 3/4 full, then I plop in the baby scoby that grew on top of the mother scoby, add in 1 cup of plain, fermented tea from either my Scoby Hotel, or from the batch I previously brewed. Cover and let ferment for about 12 to 15 days. Then I bottle it with 2 Tbsp Mango Juice (I like the Naked brand here in the U.S.). And it ferments on a heating mat for about 8 more days before going into the fridge. Delicious! Have not had a cold since I started drinking it.
This was helpful. When you say 2 tablespoon Mango Juice, do you mean concentrate? Or do you mean ready to drink mango juice that's already had water added to it? Because two tablespoons doesn't seem like nearly enough.
@@cannotbeshaken7889 It's called: Mighty Mango by Naked Juice, a blend of mango, oranges, & apples. Ready to drink. Trust me, 2 Tbsp is enough. LOL
great video and love jasmine tea kombucha and you don't need black tea to make kombucha. I use coconut necter or brown rice syrup for making kombucha
I drink kombucha and I never knew it is basically the excretions from an organism that looks like it's from Planet X. That said, it tastes nice so I'll keep on! 😄👍🏼
It usually looks nicer than that. Hers looks really like gunk. The one I make at home is a nice piece that looks like a silicon sheet.
"YOU LIKE KOMBUCHA I *LIKE* KOMBUCHA WOOOOOO WOOOOO"
Seriously im here just for the meme
you can grow your own scoby, make sweet tea and add store bought kombucha, leave it for a few weeks.
you also don't need black tea, you can use green tea as wel, or smtn else
Not sure why stirring your fresh brewed loose leaf tea before you pour it into the gallon jug is never mentioned but I highly recommend it! Of course filter it before pouring into your brew vessel. Stirring before it's poured especially right after it's done brewing gives you a much stronger and rich tea!
This is one of that things thats is every russian child afraid of
Great video! Lisa was a great hostess. The presentation was clear, the story was relatable, and the video as a whole as fantastic. I'm looking forward to seeing more content of this caliber!
+Bentley Hudgins Story was relatable..?
+geeooorrrgeeee The story of her father making kombucha when she would get sick, so it reminds her of home. We all have things like that, don't we?
Dear bizarre comment section: I find it hard to believe that anyone saying to throw the pellicle away has ever brewed kombucha. It's true that the SCOBY pellicle isn't "necessary" but kombucha brewed with only starter tea will ABSOLUTELY TAKE MUCH LONGER TO BREW. This isn't rocket science, you can try it for yourself- brew one batch with the pellicle and starter tea and one batch with just starter tea. The one with the pellicle will brew way faster. Also, the SCOBY is not that delicate. I touch it with my hands, use brewing jars for tons of cycles without washing them, and never worry about PH or having super filtered water. This stuff is pretty resilient and getting good kombucha is more about learning when to move to 2nd fermentation then refrigeration based off taste, rather than following a recipe.
Saw two wild scoby yesterday while fishing. They are fast man 👨

How to make 1 gallon of Tea Wine (Kombucha)
Sterilize everything (pots pans tools Container ect) you can do this with boiling water or disinfectants.
In large pot, boil 1 gallon of water.
When water is boiling, add 18 teabags of your choosing. (I used black tea.) Add 1.5 cups of plain sugar. Brew for 15 minutes. Keep pot covered.
After 15 minutes, turn off heat and wait for it to cool to room temperature. This is extremely important. Remove tea bags.
Once the tea is at room temperature, add it to 1 gallon container.
Get yeast, and put it into the container. (any type of yeast will work, including bread yeast. I recommend using yeast specifically used in wine making. Anything from the Red Star brand is good.)
Put ballon or airlock over container. (This is because yeast eats sugar and produces alcohol and c02 gas. )
Put container in a dark, warmish place. (Yeast doesn't like light.)
Wait for when fermentation stops. This should be in around 1-2 months. You can halt fermentation prematurely by putting it in the refrigerator for a few days and removing the scum (yeast) that forms on the bottom.
My kombucha is transluscent. To help clear the mushroom, one can put a table spoon of grain alcool in tea before puting the scooby in, to jumpstart it.
what is a skobi
meh got to 2 min of talking about skobi .... without knowing what it was..
cmon
+Greg Wells Google it, online you can learn far more information, this video was basically just to inform us on how to make the drink itself. Just basic information. Nothing more.
+Greg Wells Hunk of yeast/bacteria
+Greg Wells Strange that, since it was defined in the first minute: 0:56
+Greg Wells Its just a bunch of bacteria and yeast. If you make the same tea and put some ready made kombucha in it it will start to grow on its own as the fermentation process is active. So its basically a bunch of bacteria that you can grow with a little piece you got from somewhere.
I can't wait to make this never!
Hello. We're doing with green tea with less quantity. We used 800ml water, 80gm sugar and 8gm green tea. We used the GTS Kombucha drink (green tea flavoured), to make. We used 50ml of Kombucha drink. So how many days we should keep it outside? And how many do you think it'll take the scoby to grow? Any tips? Thanks, in advance!
For those who are actually serious, they're for sale all over online or at natural health food stores. Or if you want to be neighborly, sign up at nextdoor.com and ask your neighbors. SCOBYs are everywhere. Just ask.

Quality video good job Munchies
I ordered a scoby it is something that i have been wanting for a long time so i am excited
Great video. Except there are 2 common scientific mistakes about tea and kombucha (in one), which don't alter the instructions. First, black tea has less cafeine, not more. So, if kombucha was produced by SCOBY processing sugar + cafeine we should use green tea. But in fact it is not the cafeine that is needed, but the tannins. And there are more of those in black tea (which is oxydized tea) than green tea.
how long does a skoby last? does it ever go bad? I can't wait to make my own kombucha now!
Almost indefinitely unless it starves, but new ones will form as you brew batches so that isn’t even an issue.
Aren't you suppose to use some of the old kumbucha to pour into the new mix as a starter tea?
Yes you can.
yeah, they say to acidify it properly, kind of big step missing here
Yes, you can as a starter. The equivalent of 2 cups or 500 ml.
My auntie used to make this for us when we where younger I love the taste.. I wonder where I can get it am in Dubai.
When you come to nairobi I will give you.happy 2021
seeing a lot of people in the comments asking if you can leave your kombucha starter + scoby out for a longer time and to answer your question: i've left mine out for months at a time (even in a chillier space) and it's survived for three years :) (also, kombucha know-it-alls, please tell me if this is dangerous lol)

+ruhelmiah10 Actually there are ways that people have been eating them, since you end up with so many and they get so big sometimes. Some people put them in smoothies, or dry and candy them or dry them and treat them like fruit leather. some people, since they don't really want to "eat" it will dry it completely and grind it and put it in capsules for their supposed health benefits. I personally have never done any of those things, as i'm content to just use it for Kombucha xD

It's very hard to explain to someone who's not Asian, but basically there are many countries in Asia and many long-lasting rivalries.
So glad I came across this! When I was growing up, I remember something similar was introduced in our community for everyone to benefit.
When a small piece of the yeast substance was placed into a large bowl, it would grow and fill up the bowl. It had to feed on water and sugar.
Here's my question:
Does anyone have an idea about what that was? Please let me know. Thanks

if you don't know anyone that has a scoby, you can buy one online or buy regular bottled and unpasteurised kombucha and grow a new scoby from it
What is scoby? Does it come from a plant? Is it ok to buy scoby on Ebay?

I have a scoby but only a small amount of liquid with it. The only store here with kombucha tea for sale is in plastic bottles. I read everywhere that plastic is taboo. So should I not use this plastic-bottled kombucha as a starter tea. Some sites state vinegar is not a good substitute.
Thanks Lisa Lov, you're awesome
Bro all you need is one bad bacteria (ecoli) and I think Kombucha becomes the best colon cleanse

I've been making kombucha for 20 years and it's a myth that you need to add a skobi. I remember buying one for my first go at it but you do not need a skobi. Trust me and enjoy.
