“Easy for absolute beginners. Clear instructions and nice packaging. My first batch is 2F and I've started another batch with this SCOBY (it's actually a pellicle). As the SCOBY is actually the liquid - this is what makes the kombucha - I wish a full 2 cups (16 ounces) were included instead of 12 ounces. The liquid is the key, not the pellicle per se. I recommend this kit for the price and the ease in getting set-up.7/7/19 update: My first 2F was a dud - I used honey and it killed the bacteria. I just tasted my 2nd batch (1F for 11 days at 80 degrees then 2F with strawberries only for 2 days room temp in the fridge for 1 day) and its perfect. Crisp, fizzy - Ive read that each batch will get better and that was the case for me. I also made sure to use 2 cups starter for this batch when I started it which also helped. Im very pleased with this product.”
“Unlocks the Gate to the Kombucha and fermentation worlds. Great starter cultures. Does what it's supposed to do. Just remember to buy a food thermometer as well as a pH tester/testing strips. Have fun brewing!”
