Hey guys glad you liked this video! I just did another video on this using raw organic honey instead of sugar. Check it out!
• Grow your own Probioti...
The probiotics sold in pharmacy stores are freeze dried. Which means they are not activated. I think it is best to grow my own probiotic bacteria in my kitchen. They are live and ready to be consumed.
For me I had to use a good probiotics as a starter. It is best to get as much variety of good bacteria as possible in a capsule in a good product. You can get a bottle of an inexpensive but good probiotics to start farming!
Consider getting it here:

Probiotic bacteria is important to our health. They help to digest foods and also crowd out the bad bacteria, mold, fungus and yeast in our digestive system.
Below are the simple ingredients and items I use:
900ml glass jar. (use a BPA-free plastic lid)
fruits of any kind that you like
Apple cider vinegar (about 3 spoonful)
Raw organic sugar (about 4 spoonful)
and Water filled up till 4/5 of the glass bottle)
1 capsule of probiotic
Probiotic Bacteria loves sugar. Feed them and they will grow.
Take care of them in your kitchen and they'll take good care of you!

You created a very very strong acidic medium with 4 TSP of vinegar. That would actually kill most beneficial bacteria. Use just a few drops of them next time. All the bacteria needs is sugar and it makes its own acids later.
Do u know if works with any probiotic bacteria,included bifidobacterium?
@@kosesangon4296 i would suggest to buy vsl #3 pills and add it to your milk and make a natural yogurt with the world's best probiotic.
@Medicine no, there's no need.
Can i use this to clean my septic tank as well?
Please Suggest similar probiotic powder, Capsules for Starter Culture in England,UK please.
I bought a few But none worked. Maybe fake or Dead bacteria 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠
why am i tearing up? it feels like im watching a dad raising his children.. then swallowing them
BlackHype lol
Hahaha
Lol
This comment made my day lolol thanks 😂
Lmao! Hahahhaha
Some of the strangest comments for a fermentation video.
1:43 I almost could hear them shouting happily "Yeeeeeee"
LOL! 😅
ACV contains acetic acid and actually interrupts lacto fermentation. It's a different kind of fermentation. Research and experiment either way.

Thank you. This was very helpful and also the comment about the vinegar. Both of you very helpful and thoughtful video and suggestions.
Thank you! This is pure gold! Do you also know how to raise SBO probiotics?
That’s awesome if you haven’t already you should try making kombucha its almost exactly the same process you can inoculate/start it it from a store bought kombucha.
i might try it!
That was lovely. Thank you! I am learning to become a probiotic bacteria farmer. :-)
Haha that's great! 😀😀😀
Gracias, I truly enjoyed this. Peaceful and to the point🌻
You're welcome Linda 😊
That was so satisfying to watch. The slow, deliberate hand movements. The music. I feel very zen :)
Thank you for watching :)
Angela Thompson lol...
You are a gay than
I like the gentle setting down of the glass on the counter
With the weird baby spoon
Well made video, easy to watch. Thank you for posting. I will give it a try!
misspaanwallah thank you! Yes please try it 🤗
I like this idea. I think that the dry probiotics in the probiotic capsules are being activated and ready to help digestion as soon as it is consumed. Also, the probiotics will have multiplied to a higher count. The dry probiotic capsules are not even awake after leaving the stomach. I am going to try this out for sure.
I totally agree!
Great video! just bought some glass bottles and a really big one and on my way to Tesco for the ingredients (already have a probiotic with 10 different strains) I'm gona be a probiotic bacteria farmer! 😀
That's awesome! Let me know how it goes! All the best :)
Thankz so much for the video and making it so simple with good information. much Love !
You're welcome! Please try it 😀👍
Thank you for the video! You helped me make a strong probiotic! Amazing!
Fantastic!
Nice video. One thing I might add is to not add seeds of seeded fruit when fermenting. Use the fruit, not the seed. Some fruit seeds could poison your ferment. Well done. 😊
Very good info! Thanks for sharing. I will take note of that the next batch I make.
Good tip. Haven't heard that from anyone else. Thanks!
Apple seeds especially
@Kurt M. I wouldn't
Why do you need to make a snide comment🤨@@kurtm.7494
Brilliant.Thank you for sharing. I'm going to do this.
I think rust occurs when the metal is damaged or scarred. I read that metal can prevent some bacteria from growing tho.
Music was awesome and I felt like sleeping....Nice
Apart from Banana, what else can we se for the fruit as growing media ?
Nice job! Thank you very much for your posting. So, does it sometimes take more than 3 days to start to get bubbles? Also, what would you say it should smell like when it's working right? Does it have a neutral smell or does it smell like vinegar?
It really depends on the temperature and constituents in the jar. If the condition is right, the probiotic bacteria can replicate fast and lots of bubbles will be produced. The smell would depend on how much apple cider vinegar there is in there. The amount that I used was not a lot, so after 3 days it smells somewhat fruity. Depends on the type of fruits you put in as well.
Yes, nice job. Very well done. Thank you.
I love this video also the music is so so so good i love it😌
Afzainizam Thank you for sharing. From our experience it is not necessary to close jar tight. We cover it with material to prevent any dust from going inside the jar and place it in a warm dark place.
Oh! The way you are doing it reminds me how my mom makes apple cider vinegar :)
unfortunately I didn't make a video of her doing that...But maybe in the future I will make one!
@@afzainizamzahari That would make for good content. I hope you do : )
Also, you can get a jar cap with one way water valve... so that the air can go outside but never inside.
this video made me relaxed and ready to sleep lol
Lol! 😁
Can you do this with lactobacillus plantarum? Would it be histamine free then?
Going to give this a go
once it gets really bubbly n ready to drink, how long does it stay good? is there a expiration date? thank you for making a great video!
TrueChristianDoctirnes WeAreTrueChristians it can stay good for a long while as long as the lid is kept tight and the insides are not exposed to air. But it depends on your taste. The longer you leave it, the sour it gets. So it depends on your taste preference.
Can you use 2 or 3 types of fruit at once?
Also thank you for this vid I am subbing.
Love learning how to take care of myself by myself.👍
Oh it's a one off vid? Is this you or did you borrow the footage from someone else?
Yup this is all done by me. I'm thinking of doing more of this type of videos soon. Sure you can use more fruits, but make sure they are fruits which you enjoy and fruits that to give off a bad smell
What abo it fruits and some coconut meat?
Sure! Coconut meat sounds great. Actually you gave me an idea about coconut meat. You can ferment it and add some stuffs to make a cheese substitute. But that idea is for another video 😅
Very simple 😁 thanks!
you're welcome! :)
I am going to play this music when I make this too.
Question...
Will it help the probiotics some?
how long before you make a fresh batch of brew and throw this one out? Thanks!
How do you get the probiotics survive the stomach acid, when its not in capsules or any protection from the acid.
Thank you for this amazing video, I have a question after this completely fermented how long can I use it ?
Is The probiotics have expired date ?
Hi! For me, I consume it not more than after 3 or 4 days, you can keep in the fridge to stop the probiotics from multiplying. The longer it is left outside, the more sour it becomes.
Great video bro! Thanks!
Thank you for watching!
Is there a way to do this without the sugar,i want to use it for treating gingivitis using L.reuteri but sugar wont be good on my teeth
What if you add tryptone into the mixture for probiotic formula!
I do not know what music you used... but sounds a lot like Raag Jhinjhoti from Indian Classical Music... I liked the video and the idea a lot.. but why do we add vinegar... do we need to make it sour... after the bacteria from the capsule is added... plus sugar... and organic material... isnt it enough for fermentation?
From what I've read you need to always boil your fruit first, otherwise you are cultivating the bacteria that is in the fruit as well...
Why so sure that that's so bad?
Thanks for the information!
We don't need fruit, we need the sugar.I use honey.
@@y.k.9705 honey its free form lactose, the probiotic they feed from lactose
I tried this recipe. While it did make a strong probiotic drink, it also raised my blood sugar a lot as measured by my continuous glucose monitor. I tried to make it a couple of times letting it ferment longer each time to ferment more of the sugar until it had no sweet taste at all. It still raised my blood sugar a lot. Not good for diabetics or any kind of low carb diets.
Thank you for this feedback! This is very vital information for diabetics to know. A new recipe is needed to make it safe for diabetics
Try using honey instead? Also start fasting if he not a type 1 diabetic fast!!!!
thank you!
But i just have question after 24 hours or 2 days do i keep it in room temperature or I need to put it in refrigerator?
ed k keep in room temperature is best. If you keep in the fridge the bacterial activity will be very very slow and might even stop. For my case, it takes about 48 hours depending on the situation
First, thank you for the video. I was wondering, is this the same process for making say a laundry protein stain remover...you know something like Bioclean, Natures Miracle, or Roccos and Roxies?
Keishapc hmmm, i’m not sure about that. I don’t have any experience doing those things.
How much quantity of vinegar and what purpose? Also the lid must air tight seal?
I made sauerkraut by using probiotic capsule.But the liquid is auiet slimy, though the smell and texture is fine, I'm scared to taste it. Is the slimy texture because of the probiotics ? I have made sauerkraut before without using probiotic capsules and it's juice was quite watery,so I'm a little skeptical this time.
Can someone with knowledge help me with a question that I cannot get answered...I'm hoping that the old saying, "there's no such thing as a stupid question" still stands....So...I am new to fermenting, and started with yogurt making...I used whole milk and plain yogurt as a culture...It set well, and had medium tartness, and produced good whey...All is good...As I forged on I began to read postings of people who had trouble doing the exact thing I did...My question is, "How do I know my yogurt has is rich in probiotics?" Is it the tartness, I don't know...Your video shows evidence of probiotic growth, but with milk there isn't any visual...Now maybe I'm being too analytical....Any answers? Thank you and GREAT video..Your content and style are beautiful!
Yes, the tart sour taste indicates the presence of probiotic bacteria. Others that are having trouble may not be using a good quality yogurt as a starter, or their fermenting temperature isn't warm enough. I've been off dairy for a number of years but when I used to make yogurt I would start with a good quality plain yogurt (no gelatin added). I would ferment the batch in my oven overnight with the oven light on to maintain a warm consistent temperature.
Amazing super ideas must tries this thk a lots.
hello i followed directions and tested after 3 days using milk method and saw a change within 1 hour compared to testing the pill it took 30 hours!! my question (1) should it smell sour,?(2)how much should i take per day?(3)do i just skim liquid from top to drink? when i did the milk test i only used 1 teaspoon. thank you
BRAINWASHED hmmm I have no experience using milk so I can’t answer your questions really.
So you took a source of sugar and nutrients (the fruit), added more sugar, then added Acetobacter spp and then added some more bacteria and yeasts. Then you sealed the bottle. What happens? are made of both bacteria and yeast. Common bacteria can include lactobacillus and bifidobacterium. The most common yeast found in
Please suggest the best probiotics capsules or powder you have used as starter culture to grow probiotics at home? Please. UK Amazon or UK eBay please
How long should it stays bubbly? If the bubbles are gone does it mean the probiotics all died?
Using 85 billion probiotics in my oatmeal, usually keep a pot on the stove ultra low heat for one day then I let it cool on the stove, I start a pot at the beginning of the week, by the end of the week it’s well infiltrated. It actually never sees the refrigerator. No sugar, but cinnamon, oregano, turmeric, black pepper, blueberries.... maybe little honey
Wow the bacteria back to life...nice movie
How long does it taken to ferment? Thanks for the great video.
depending on the probiotic capsules, the fermentation process can take 48 hours or longer. Usually by the third day there will be a lot of froth in it.
Good soft music thanks.
Thank you, this was extremely helpful. Though, i don't think you should condone drinking directly from the bottle! That's adding bad bacteria.
So how much, how often do i drink?
I will be using a wee bit of local raw honey instead of sugar and maybe not so much vinegar. And im so paranoid about bad bacteria getting in that i will start a new batch every time i finish. I'm definitely no Pro, this is just how i want to make it but all thanks to your help.
Sounds like a good plan 👍
Can I used this method to brew Lactobacillus Reuteri?
Could you do this without the fruit and apple cider vinegar, maybe by adding some more sugar? I'm wanting to grow a very specific probiotic strain, and I wonder if the yeast/bacteria on the surface of the fruit would compete with the probiotic. I've grown kefir using just the culture and sugar + water.
To grow just a specific strain this might not be the method you should be looking at I'm afraid.
hellomeoww, I too am wanting to culture a specific strain, and have no idea what type of culturing route I need to go down. Have you found any really good info beyond the video explaining anything?
Bro. Is probiotics supplement safe to use as starter or we should buy a starter culture for fermentation. Which one is better to properly ferment vegetables?
I use probiotics supplements because I know what bacteria will be in it. It can also ferment vegetables. You can also buy a starter culture if you can find one.
I wonder if u could use a teaspoon of kiefer instead of the probiotic capsule?
this is a good question. I've never done it.... but I have a feeling it could work. You might like to experiment. Let me know how it goes!
shouldnt you mush or make a puree pf the fruits ao the bacteria can feed on them better and faster?
That's a great idea
Please can you tell me I want to try to make this wit l reuterii in capsules but they say to make l reiterii it needs to be hot environment…. Do you know anything about this?
I’m dairy sensitive. So I can not have yogurt or kefir.
I’m praying that your recipe will help me.
Awesome video! So do I add the same amount of sugar when it's low? More water? Another probiotic capsule? Thank you friend
add more water (leaving 1/5th of the container empty still, to allow room for gas build up) and as much sugar as you feel is necessary, too much might make it ferment very fast, causing more gas build up, causing the need to "burp" it more, but too little and it'll ferment slower and less.
@@chadthundercocksexhaver3959 makes sense, thank you!
Informative. Thank you for sharing
thank you for watching!
Is the sugar necessary ? I'm trying to stay away from refined/simple sugars... I was thinking of subbing with Date sugar..
Sugar is necessary to feed the probiotic bacteria. Simple sugars are good because it can be broken down fast by the bacteria. You can also use other types of sugar like date sugar. I've never tried them. If you do, let me know how it goes 😀
Fantastic!
Thanks for the video
I was wondering if I can culture probiotics just by emptying a probiotic capsule into water and sugar, without adding any fruits to it
doesn't hurt to try an experiment. So far my understanding is that the bacteria need something to hang on it in order for them to grow a colony. Those fruit pieces can provide this.
Afzainizam Zahari thank you
I guess I'll go ahead and try.
How often do i need to change out the fruits? And should i refrigerate?
Great informative video btw. You're doing physician work!
You can change out the fruits after about 5 days. You can actually eat them. You can refrigerate them not a problem.
Thanks for your response. ok that's good to know! do I keep all the old liquid when changing out the fruits? or should I just start afresh with only a few tablespoons of old liquid?
you can consume most of the old liquid and keep some of it to start anew with fresh new fruits and other ingredients.
Awesome! thank you!
you're welcome!
Do you think all of the inoculated species can reproduce themselves in that environment? It would be cool to have the bacterial content of your drink rigorously checked
Please Suggest similar probiotic powder, Capsules for Starter Culture in England,UK please.
I bought a few But none worked. Maybe fake or Dead bacteria 🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠
thanks a lot ♥️👍🏼very useful video
You're welcome 😀
I understand the probiotics and the sugar plus fruit, but why a separate bacteria from vinegar?
I currently brew Jun Kombucha and Water Kefir... can I use some kombucha instead of apple cider vinegar as a starter?
Aleesha Sattva oh kombucha! Hmmm... not too sure how it will taste like, but i’m sure it will also work in place of apple cider vinegar
I drink 16oz of kombucha daily. I'm a walking bacteria farm.
hahahahahaha good one!
Carefull with your teeth. Kombucha is very acidic and wears away tooth enamel.
@@grezikpainting yeah most everything fermented is sadly. I usually drink water after.
as me-since 12 jears
Drink with a straw
How can gud bacteria be survived in stomach hcl as u have removed enteric coating that is capsule
if this produces gas, does it mean it also produces ethanol as a metabolite beside lactic acid?
Yes, but in very small amounts. Even inside our own guts alcohol is produced everyday, equivalent to 0,5l of beer.
Do You know why good bacteria levels decrease after You stop taking probiotics, and also around 90% of bacteria die in stomach before they reach intestines. How to prevent that, and overall how to make probiotics effect more permanent?
after you stop taking probiotics, all sorts of bacteria will still continue to live in your body. When you go to the toilet 1/3 of what comes out is bacteria. There is no way to prevent bacteria dying in your stomach. The type of foods we eat matters. Sweet sugary foods are what bacteria love to feed on. If there's more bad bacteria in your body, they will grow even more. Eating fermented foods will help to promote better digestion because the bacteria present in fermented foods will help to break down other foods that we have eaten that are in our body.These bacteria are the ones that help our bodies stay healthy. We have to consume good whole foods and also fermented fruits and vegetables. If possible, stay away from processed foods altogether.
There is no way to make the effects of probiotics permanent without consuming good fermented fruits and vegetables. Even drinking just good apple cider vinegar everyday will help our bodies.
Hi Afzainizam Zahari,
Thanks for the video. I would like to know after the fermenting portion, how would we know the strains in the probiotic capsule would exist in our mixture?
I was thinking if the other bacteria in the environment would overpower the strains from capsule that we want. Thank you so much.
You have to look out for black mould. That is the bad guy that we don't want to consume. ever. Make sure the bottle is closed all the time. You will know the original bacteria from the probiotics capsule has brown in numbers when you see the mixture is now bubbly. Don't worry about other bacteria in the air that might get in there.
From what I know, good bacteria from air can also ferment the fruit mix without having the mold come into the picture. When my mixture gets bubbly, how am I sure that the microbes in my drink are from the capsules and not the strains in the air?
Thats what I really want to know. Thank you for your time. :)
@@afzainizamzahari It's been 5 days and I still don't have any brown threads in my mangoes. Will the fruit continue to ferment in the fridge? Thanks for this very informative video.
Sarah A Did you see any gas bubbles in the jar? Also, once it is in the fridge, the fermentation slows down to a crawl.
If I add two probiotic capsules instead of one will I need more sugar or bigger jar ?
At what quantity do the bacteria multiply?
Fred Bread you can keep to the same amount of sugar. Chances are there few viable bacteria in each capsules. These “few” bacteria are all we need to make them replicate into more bacteria. The more capsules you put in, the better the chances of the fermentation process happening much faster.
Can the apple cider vinegar be omitted if we only have probiotic supplements? Can fresh lemon juice be used instead of apple cider vinegar and probiotic supplements? Can fresh squeeze fruit juice or dried fruit be used to replace the sugar? 😊
Hi! I am not sure, all I know is that the "mother" inside the apple cider is the starter for the probiotic bacteria to do its job. You can try to experiment without using apple cider. Let me know how it turns out! Also it is best to use fruits that are very very ripe and has a lot of sugar content in it because that's what the bacteria needs. If the fruit is not very ripe there is a need to add more sugar. Dried fruit usually has a lot of sugars in it so yes, that will be able to replace the sugars. Try it out and see if it works. :)
Thank you 🙂
Good bacteria feed on inulin and fiber bound non refined sugars. Adding refined sugar to this means you are more likely to feed your candida than establish a healthy gut. Try adding garden of life inulin and at most 1/2tbsp honey or rice syrup/coconut sugar next time. Bet you notice a big difference in effect.
This is good! I will try this!
Can You please explain for noob - adding life insulin means what?
@@playgrounddolls7766 inulin is like a super long chain sugar, not insulin (Please do not add insulin). Different bacteria prefer different forms of sugar. Refined sugars are often shorter chains. Inulin is a long one.
@@playgrounddolls7766 and garden of life is a brand I'm assuming.
@@kateconaghan1072 ok got it. Thank You for Your time.
bro if i use capsule?
how many days bacteria will survive in that solution?
Thank you
What do you think about a probiotic that contains 3 enzymes and some prebiotics? Do you think that is a no go?
I'm not sure what the 3 enzymes you mentioned do, but I'm sure it will not get in the way of the probiotic bacteria from multiplying. Try it out and let me know if it works!
can you add this to milk for making yogurt?
How would store it after its done fermenting? Keep it on the fridge and leave it there? Also when the water finishes up, I tried adding ACV and Distilled water but it didn't seem to fizz like it used it.
You can store it in the fridge if you like. Did you try to use new fruits?
@@afzainizamzahari no I didn't, I just added ACV and Distilled water to the old fruits. Shall do that and add honey next time? I feel like it'll be over crowded if I add more fruits
I think the old fruit you can eat them or just compost them. Then add new fruits. Honey! Hmm not sure because honey is anti bacteria right? Let me know if this works!
Shouldn't you add salt to prevent bolutism?
Do you leave it out on the counter or refrigerate it after it's done?
For me I leave it out on the counter Max 3 days. Usually I will finish it all by then though. If not, I'll keep it in the fridge.
Next: How to open your own brewery 😂
how long can these probiotics live in that jar?
Thank you.
nice...im going to try this...would raisins make a good ferment? thanks
You can try! I haven't tried before so I'm not sure how it will taste like. You're going to need a lot of raisins.
thanks...raisins will produce a lot of sweetness; so less sugar i think
Hmm.... Yes try with less sugar... If there's no bubbling in 2 days, give it another 2 days for the bubbling to happen.
Thx for the video, im gonna try this. But i hv question regarding, how long should i keep this drink until it really fermented? And after its fermented how long can i use it repeatedly?
Datez it takes about 2 days, depending on the number of live bacteria and also the medium they are in. You can keep reusing indefinitely. For me I will keep replenishing for about 2 weeks and then I’ll start fresh again.
Hello, thanks for this good video but i have a question.
when i open it after 2 days to drink , how much days i can let it open to drink it day by day?
Thank you
Kostas Karas you can open and close it as many times as you like. From my experience, it’s better not to leave it open for a long time. Once opened to pour out the content, close immediately.
very good, if you tell me how to do the same for enzimes. will be great.
Will this work for any probiotic strain? I have a strain that is usually found in Mother's milk. However, I feel like I can use the fruit ferment to increase the populations of any anaerobic bacteria if given the proper sugar and fruit.
Raman Johnson the only way to know is to try it 😄👍
so how much will this multiply your probiotics?
when drinking this makes me feel good right after
Afzainizam i have raw yogurt that is many weeks old....is there anyway i can make use of it? the sour tang and bubble action i noticed long ago was gone and i didnt know what to do so its just been in my fridge and i have like two or three gallons of it

Any ethanol that you consume when you drink the brew?
I doubt so. But even if there isany, it's really an insignificant amount
