− | Ingredients for 5L:
| |
− | * 600g Sugar
| |
− | * 50g tea (20 tea bags of Bell)
| |

− | == First Fermentation ==
| |
− | | |
− | Once you have a mix going (copied from an existing scoby), you will need to bottle the mix and get the first fermentation running again around every week:
| |
− | | |
− | # Remove scoby and 700ml of liquid and place in separate container.
| |
− | # Stir the remaining liquid to ensure consistency. | |
− | # Bottle the stirred liquid adding fruit and/or any other flavors.
| |
− | # Clean out the container (that the liquid was in) with white vinegar.
| |
− | # Add sugar to container and dissolve in 1L of boiling water.
| |
− | # Add tea bags and wait 10 mins to brew (no need to stir).
| |
− | # Remove tea bags and add 3.3L cold water and ensure entire mix is cold (not still hot from the boiling water added from an earlier step).
| |
− | # Add your scoby and the 700ml of liquid you placed aside earlier.
| |
− | # Cover and ferment for around 1 week.
