Guest guest Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 I have several salad dressing jars that around 2.25 " in diameter and hold about 1.5 cups. I have been brewing tiny little batches in these jars solely for the purpose of growing thin, sturdy scobies to use for bandages. After they've grown for a few days and are still pliable and sturdy, but thin, I harvest the baby and put it in a 'bandage hotel', and let it continue to form new bucha bandages. My son had a 2nd degree burn on the entire lower portion of his arm recently. Using garlic oil, a homemade healing salve and bucha bandaids, it healed very quickly (fresh new skin in 5 days).

Guest guest Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 I keep thin scobys, too, for first-aid. My husband was stung under the eye by a red wasp and a piece of scoby kept it from swelling. -Patty -- In kombucha tea , " cathyjeromeknight " <cwmsknight@...> wrote: > > I have several salad dressing jars...I have been brewing tiny little batches in these jars solely for the purpose of growing thin, sturdy scobies to use for bandages.

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2008 Report Share Posted September 30, 2008 Hi EveryOne, Good news! Kombucha has been used as a treatment for burns in hospitals in Europe. I believe Gunther mentions that use in his book " Kombucha: Healthy Beverage and Natural Remedy from the Far East " . People have also mentioned that putting Kombucha on bee stings takes the sting away and others have used the Kombucha colonies on sore joints and experienced relief from pain. Amazing healer Kombucha!
