Re: Mistake...too much water perhaps

[Guest guest]

...the sweet tea strength can vary quite a bit and still make great

Kombucha. To a certain extent the strength of the fresh tea is subjective.

You may like to use six tea bags per gallon...I may like to use nine or

sometimes ten. So I would not really worry too much. If it keeps bothering

at the back of your mind...just remove some of the brew and replace it with

stronger cooled sweet tea.

Do be sure there is some space at the top of you brew container...you do not

want the brew touching the cover, of course.

Good luck with it!

Mistake...too much water perhaps

Hello,

I was brewing up two batches of Kombucha yesterday and I think I got too

happy with the water. I made 3 quarts of green sweet tea to divide between

two batches and when adding my fresh water to the concentrated sweet tea, I

think I added too much, perhaps two cups too much to each batch. I poured

more than one cup of prepared Kombucha over each SCOBY (perhaps 1 ¼ - 1 ½

cups), but I am wondering if I need to make more sweet tea or should I just

let it ride? I'm not exactly sure what I did, I just know my jars are filled

to the brim and they usually aren't.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
