Buy a Kombucha culture and brew delicious organic Kombucha tea at home!
 
A Kombucha starter culture (aka Kombucha scoby, mushroom, mother) consists of yeast and bacteria existing in a symbiotic relationship. When combined with brewed tea, sugar, water and allowed to ferment for 5 to 30 days, the resulting Kombucha tea beverage has a slightly carbonated zing and is packed full of b-vitamins.

Save money! Commercially available Kombucha tea generally sells for $3+ for a 16 oz. bottle. Using our Kombucha starter culture, you can brew Kombucha tea for $2 a gallon or less! With proper care, the Kombucha scoby can be used over and over to brew a refreshing, vitamin filled Kombucha tea.

I tried making growing a SCOBY from a bottle of tea and never got the balance right. I wish I had started here. The SCOBY was beautiful and has been making great tea and healthy babies. And, they arrived very quickly with excellent instructions.

I've made kombucha for about a year with a homemade scoby, grown from a bottle of purchased kombucha from the health food store. I recently purchased a scoby from Cultures for Health and the taste difference is astounding. The CFH scoby produces a bubbly beverage that is very balanced between acid and sweet, rather like a mixture of tea and lemonade. I get a baby scoby with every single batch I make, something I couldn't duplicate with my homemade scoby. Outstanding product, worth every penny.

My order arrived promptly. The scoby was in great shape. It was about 4" in diameter and an inch think. It produced a wonder batch of kombucha right away. I refer to the instructions every time I make a new batch. I'm still brewing with this scoby and many of her daughters.

I love my Kombucha! The starter arrived in just a few days and I began using it immediately. A few months later and I have 3 gallons brewing on any given day.

I thought I was going to use it sooner and I let it expire. It only lives for a short time before you have to use it. So it was totally my fault that I didnt get to use it. But I am going to get another one once I have all teh supplies at home, so I have no excuse note to make it right away.

I'm on my 3rd batch of kombucha from this starter, and it is still going strong. It makes an extra baby mushroom with each batch, so you can make ALOT of kombucha once you get started. The instructions were detailed and easy to follow, and the package arrived much more quickly than I'd anticipated.

I ordered this Kombucha starter to try my hand at making kombucha. The instructions were very clear and the starter worked perfectly. I'm now making gallons at a time! I highly recommend Cultures for Health.

I can't say enough good about how pleased I am with the Kombucha starter and instructions I purchased from Cultures for health. I am on my second batch of tea, the first batch was delicious! And, best of all my original culture now has a 'baby' so I am brewing 2 gallons at a time. So much fun! And such an economical way to provide a healthy and delicious beverage for my family.

My next purchase from Cultures for Health will be water kefir cultures. After my positive kombucha experience i am ready to do more culturing!

it was easy and i would say almost error proof! i started with one mushrooms and now have enough to brew 3,4 gallons. in only a couple of months. The mushrooms are very healthy and active!it tastes great! Can't wait to try different types of tea with it. I have also been experimenting with fruit juices in the final fermentation, as per the instructions, and I have gotten some delicious results. this is worth every penny and more!

I purchased this starter and am now up to making 2 gallons at a time. The culture was very active and did just as they said it would. The kombucha is great tasting. We love it. The directions were easy to follow, also. I would purchase from this company again; I received my products right away. Thank you.
