Excellent product, great instructions! 1st time brewing Kombucha. The instructions were very easy to follow. The SCOBY has worked out great and has turned into multiple SCOBY's now. I have went from brewing 1 batch to brewing 4 simultaneous batches. Would recommend this to anyone who is thinking about brewing their own.

Great Product! I got it and it worked really well! I put it in 5 gallons of sweet tea and it only took a week to grow over the top and after about two weeks it was ready to drink! The instructions were clear and helpful! Would buy it again.

Love this Scoby! This is my second scoby from Fermentaholics. It's amazing. I had to buy a second one because the first one couldn't be moved with us from New England to the South. (I also didn't do enough homework on scoby hotels prior to leaving on a month long vacation). I brewed for about a year with my OG scoby and the various babies it produced. I kept things organic by using organic tea and filtered water, flavoring with organic ginger. It's really easy to maintain, easier than a goldfish and so much less maintenance. If you're looking for a "pet" that will produce the goods, help you maintain healthy gut buddies, and ease your kombucha expenses, this is a great investment. My second scoby is brewing away and ready for the flavor part of the cycle, but with grocery shopping minimal, I haven't been able to get any fresh ginger. :( It shipped really quickly for me since it was just coming across the state.

They made it so simple! I used to make kombucha a lot, but then I stopped for a few years. Well, hello, where was I going to get a SCOBY? The SCOBY is a very personal, and the thought of 'ordering it online' was awful to me. I started to make one from scratch from a store bought Kombucha, and it was working, but needed way more time than I wanted to wait (if you don't know, starting to make your own SCOBY is possible, but takes time). So after reading reviews here, I took a chance on getting a SCOBY from Fermentaholics. Boy! Was that great decision! The directions on the package were very clear, and I felt the ethical nature, heart and spirit of this company in all that I did. I no longer felt like I had a stranger's SCOBY brewing my tea. It felt like family. I finished my first batch today (took 8 days), and it's fabulous! Already got my second batch started. I am totally pleased with this product and company. My heartfelt thanks for the care they put into their goods.

Beautiful and potent organic SCOBY! Delicious kombucha made in 5 days! I was very impressed with Fermentaholics customer service when the post office lost my SCOBY. Fermentaholics immediately sent out another to me and wow, is it a healthy SCOBY! Im super impressed with the taste & the speed in which it made my first gallon of kombucha. I am even more pleased with their excellent customer service and prompt communication. I will definitely be a returning customer!
