Guest guest Posted August 9, 2002 Report Share Posted August 9, 2002 Hi everyone, Sorry if this has been answered somewhere in that really long kombucha thread, which I've read most of but scanned a lot of . . . But, where do you folks who make it, keep your kombucha to ferment? NT says put it in a bowl with a dishtowl over it suspended by criss-crossed masking tape and keep it in a " warm dark place. " " Warm " and " cool " always seem a little vague to me, but I am not used to the combination of warm and dark-- most dark places tend to be cooler, don't they?-- because if it keeps the light out it keeps some of the heat out, especially if it is white or mirrored on the outside. I have no idea if there is any dark place in my house that is warmer than the average temp. in my house. Also, it says to keep it away from " contaminants " and " insects. " I don't have any serious insect problem in my house, but it is summer, and I do see the occasional bug or two in my house, so while we don't have hoards of ants or fruit flies, I'm not sure I have anywhere that I could _guarantee_ as bug free. Is this serious enough to fret about? Thanks, Chris ____ " What can one say of a soul, of a heart, filled with compassion? It is a heart which burns with love for every creature: for human beings, birds, and animals, for serpents and for demons. The thought of them and the sight of them make the tears of the saint flow. And this immense and intense compassion, which flows from the heart of the saints, makes them unable to bear the sight of the smallest, most insignificant wound in any creature. Thus they pray ceaselessly, with tears, even for animals, for enemies of the truth, and for those who do them wrong.
