RE: The History of Kombucha (Growing Fake Leather Part 2)
I do have the hipsters to thank (mostly Whole Foods Market) for my first exposure to kombucha- but Ive also had some strong home made stuff too that was stunning, Id love to incorporate it into my diet more regularly- maybe I can start with small batches :) what do you think about the kits out there? waste of money?
Hmm kit how? As in you get everything in one box? That really shouldn't be necessary. If you know someone who brews it, just get a scoby and some kombucha from them, and then add it to some sweet tea :)
Or if you don't you might be able to find some organic kombucha in a health store, that should work as well. If it still has a live colony, it should start growing a new scoby quite fast, if you add it to sweet tea :)
Aah, yes i heard friends back in the day talking about "the mother" quite ominous and borg sounding haha hmm will do more research for sure :)
Yup, that is the mother :) It is quite alien looking, so the ominous name is pretty fitting xD
Although i've heard of people making fruit roll ups from it, i might just try that myself :P
