Re: Want to make Kombucha tea & more fermented...

I have not had any of the tops pop yet. Guess I didn't let mine ferment that long. Update on the rapadura sugar- water kefir batch - I did not like it; had a very "off" taste to me. Not fermented or beery, but almost putrid...

I got out our sucanat & was thinking about using it, but it had an odd smell when I opened the container - I'm not really sure what sucanat is supposed to smell like.

So, I had a bit of organic cane sugar & fructose left over & used that.

Well, hit a snag here...was on day 10 of fermenting & noticed green fuzzy mold growing on the mother...so I threw it all out.

Have done some reading online & I see they can come from many different sources.

I found a neat website with a lot of Kombucha info. -

[www.happyherbalist.com]

So...now I need to order another scoby,,, Oh well, these things happen...

mmmm CJJ let me know how the ginger beer style water kefir turns out, if it seriously tastes like ginger beer, You may have sold me on water kefir...lol... I make ginger beer myself with champagne yeast... but if kefir has better health benefits, and can taste the same... I think I will go for thatsmiling smiley
