Ingredients: Organic Kombucha Starter (Triple Filtered Water, Organic Cane Sugar, Organic Green Tea, Organic Black Tea, Organic Kombucha Cuture)

Review: Great product and great customes service - Arrived fast, works very well, just follow the . We enjoyed the home brew kombucha all summer, fall and even the winter. I had some questions and received prompt and detailed advise.
Review: Alive and healthy - It was strong and healthy. It grew a great kombucha quickly and reproduced enough to have several gallons at once.

## Features

- USDA Certified Organic: These MOSA certified SCOBY and Starter Liquid Pouches are brewed with a proprietary blend of organic tea, organic cane sugar, triple filtered water and mature starter liquid.
- Superior Product: The strength and quality of these SCOBY pouches are unmatched. They’ve been lab tested and contain thousands of strains of healthy bacteria and yeast essential to ensuring you brew an out-of-this-world batch of kombucha!
- The Perfect Size: An ideal ¾ inch to 1 inch thick SCOBY is essential for fermenting a great batch at home. Too small, and it ferments too slowly. Too big, and it utilizes too much nutrients too quickly. These SCOBY pouches are the ideal size and structural balance to brew a delicious batch of booch!
- Makes 1 Gallon to Start, Plus Endless More: After your 1st brew is complete, save 1 cup of starter liquid / 1-gallon of kombucha, plus that gorgeous SCOBY and continue the endless cycle of fermenting your own kombucha at home.
- Sustainable: Our SCOBY Pouch truly is the gift that keeps on giving. Not to mention it’s cheaper and more sustainable than store bought kombucha. You’re making the conscious decision to improve your lifestyle, be green and save green!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: do i use the 8oz liquid in the pouch as my "unfiltered, raw kombucha"?**
A: Yes, the liquid in the pouch is your starter, which you'll add along with the SCOBY to start the fermentation process.

**Q: Will this work with white tea?**
A: yes!  scoby will work with white tea....as it grows, it will be a more pinkish hue due to the type of tea youre using, but should work great!

**Q: Can The Scoby be divided into 2 pieces?**
A: Yes, however, the entire contents of the SCOBY and starter pouch are meant for brewing 1 gallon of kombucha (we do not recommend splitting the SCOBY and starter to brew 2 separate batches).

**Q: Will it work with honey?**
A: This SCOBY is meant for brewing kombucha, however if you'd like to brew jun, you can try slowly weaning the SCOBY onto honey by gradually reducing the amount of sugar and increasing the amount of honey in your recipe over the course of several brews.

Wow! Just got it. Probably 1/4-1/2” thick. Just put it in my first batch. We’ll see how it does! So far, very impressed by the size and quality of the SCOBE. Looked like a thick slice of tomato. We’ll see how it tastes after 7 days or so.
