“The Honey and Green Tea Scoby is slower growing than the Sugar and Black tea Scoby. I had trouble getting it started. I think that my kitchen is too cold. I found a warmer place out of sunlight, and used 1/2 cup of raw sugar and 1/2 cup of honey to 4 organic green tea bags. The Scoby did not thrive until I made it warmer and used sugar. In the beginning, I used raw, unheated honey from my own bees, and I think that its antibacterial properties hindered the growth of the Scoby, along with not being warm enough. If anyone is having trouble, replace some of the honey with sugar. It is doing much better now. Gradually I will lessen the sugar and use more honey until I am at 1 cup of honey. Adding Honey Ginger crystals, 1/2 tsp to each bottle of brew is quite tasty. Am enjoying the process.”
“Like the flavor. Had decent jun from first try Easy to follow instructions.I had good tasting Jun kombucha from my first try. In seven days I pored the jun for second fermentation. 7 day after had nice carbonated jun.”
“Fermentaholics does it again! Another great starter from fermentaholics! I have previously ordered their regular big mama kombucha stater SCOBY and was very happy with the size, health, and flavor. After reading about Jun I had to add it to my brewing collection and was glad to see fermentaholics also offered a jun starter. It arrived super fast and came with two Scobys in the pouch! One was about a 1/2in thick and about 3in in diameter and the baby one was about half the size of the first. The jun scoby definitely has a different flavor profile and makes a great sweet lighter effervescent tea definitely a special culture to brew with! Very satisfied with both their SCOBYs would highly recommend for getting your kombucha brewing started right!”
“Makes delicious kombucha! Scoby arrived safely packaged and has since developed into a very happy large scoby that I have been able to share pieces of with friends and family interested in starting their own kombucha. Very healthy and great scoby! I love the easy directions available right there on the back of the pouch. Makes getting started so easy!”
“Brewed Some Great Jun Kombucha The starter tea had really nice floral notes. I've made 3 batches from this mother and they've all came out tasting great. Super happy with the product!”
