I would normally refer to Reddit, where I found my base recipe as well… but we are now on lemmy!

Basically:

• Make strong black tea, dissolve 70g cane sugar per liter. I think some people use less sugar maybe.
• when cool, add to scoby from previous batch in large container with access to air through a cloth (prevents insects etc from getting in)
• ferment for 1-2 weeks depending on temperature and desired tartness. This is F1
• make syrup with fruits, sugar, water and strain or take some fruit juice
• add to bottle that can withstand pressure (flip top bottles from Grolsch work well). Fill up with F1 kombucha. I think I use more or less 1:6 ratio of syrup:kombucha. Make sure to fill the bottle almost completely.
• Ferment for another few days (I did 4 days now) in closed container to build carbonation. This is F2
• refrigerate and enjoy

Yes I did! I’m going for simple syrups for the F2 these days, less fruit pieces and mini pellicles floating around at the end

Goed punt, voor mij ook een extra reden om mijn account op feddit.nl aan te houden en die op lemmy.ml toch maar links te laten liggen. Zie ook de discussie over “Expressing concerns about moderation policy on lemmy.ml”; goede kans dat andere instances lemmy.ml op een gegeven moment ook gaan defedereren. Je punt over een kleine Nederlandse instance geeft inderdaad meer zekerheid dat content beschikbaar is en blijft.
