    I used to drink coffee years ago but got away from it. After having success with regular kombucha I found a recipe for coffee kombucha. Oh yum. Started with one litre to make sure I had the recipe correct and now brew 2 litres. May have to make a larger continuous brew one. 🇨🇦❄️

    My friend Susannah, a kombucha angel, who maintains many batches and recently does it with coffee, feels that the microbes actually eat up the caffeine. Is there any validity to this?

    This is what I needed to know. My naturopathic doctor wanted me to give up kefir and fermented food because I was exposed to black mold and had a candida infestation. I knew that was wrong. I have another ND now and she says to keep the fermented foods.

      "Fermenting everything that doesn't move," lol! 💜 That's me the last month or so! How did I reach my 70s without knowing about fermenting? Me, the person that loves pickled pigs feet and anything sour, who loves Filipino food because it tastes like it has vinegar in it although now I'm questioning maybe it isn't vinegar maybe it's fermented foods. I am now looking at everything I eat and drink and wondering if it could be fermented. Googling fermented coffee led me to this video.

    Hmm, I do regular water fasts, and I noticed that when I have coffee, I have bad headaches from the end of day 1 way into day 2 of the fast.
    So I stopped drinking coffee, because it seemed I need to detox because of it.
    But, everyones setup and situation is different. What Donna says makes a lot of sense.

      Hi Stacy! I'm not a DR so talking with a Naturo Path Dr would be best to determine what is best for you. But working on healing your gut will help with the allergies to certain foods and your overall health. For now I would consider trying some Faux coffee. I have a whole article on that. It's so good for you , has no actual coffee in it, but is made from chicory root which is a wonderful prebiotic!

      Try brewing pour over with two paper fillet and then squeeze lemon, lime or orange juice into it instead of milk.
      This may sound strange but the sugars and different acids in citrus fruits neutralise and break down some of the harmful components in coffee and you get a healthier drink which doesn't make you anxious or jittery.

    Just in the nick of time! I was just thinking about finding another video because yours didn't seem to be talkin about what I had typed in the search box and finally got the 20-minute Mark you started talking about it. I was trying to figure out if coffee and kefir would go well together. It didn't sound like it would because who wants our coffee? But something in my gut, pun intended, told me to research it and consider it. Thanks for the information! And the encouragement.

Your discussion on bacteria is repetitive throughout the videos. What other tubers do is link to basic videos to prevent this. Your lack of focus prevents more people from hearing your message. Rock on! Less is more.

    This is good information however I'm curious about how a person like me who is very sensitive to caffeine can drink coffee, even Fermented, and be Ok? It sounds good but how can my body benefit from the coffee if my sensitivity to caffeine makes me feel yucky, a bad headache or migraine, nausea or all the above.

      As your body heals your sensitivity to caffeine will decrease. That doesn't mean you can drink 10 cups of coffee and not have any issues with caffeine but those that are super sensitive to caffien do better as they hal their gut and adrenals/over all health. Also coffee kombucha and kombucha in general has about 1/3 to 1/2 less caffeine than coffee in its normal state and also changes the way you digest it completely. But you may need to heal your gut first with other things if you have a high sensitivity .
