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.
Kombucha Scobys are manufactured in a facility that also processes dairy, soy, wheat, nut, and fish products. Kombucha Scobys are a vegan starter culture (no animal-by products).
This Kombucha Tea Starter Kit includes:
- Kombucha Tea starter culture
- Organic Black Tea (enough for the culture activation batch)
- Plastic mesh strainer (4")
- pH Strips
- 22-page Instruction and Recipe Booklet
The items in the kit may be different than pictured.

- It isn't clear what's included in this kit. It says strainer, but I'm guessing the culture is there? What about the tea? The sugar?
- The kit includes a dehydrated scoby and plastic mesh strainer. You add your favorite tea (see instructions for recommendations. and sugar :)

- Once I have a culture from my first batch of kombucha How and where do I store it for the next batch.
thank you. - As a live culture consisting of active yeasts and bacteria, Kombucha Scobys do best if they are allowed to sit on the counter culturing one batch of sugared tea after another. However, life can interfere at times and if you are facing the possibility of needing to take a break from making Kombucha, here are some guidelines for how to take a break without damaging the Scoby: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/how-to-take-break-making-kombucha-tea

Regrettably, my MS brain and lack of adequate funds have made it impossible to start my Kombucha starter. I've watched the video, and I can't wait to get started. I need a good jar, then I'm ready. My starter is in the fridge awaiting me. (Posted on May 24, 2013)Quality Value Price
