Hi Blake ☺
8 months later, & im STILL making vinegar! i've also made, a pear, and a pineapple. i am very lucky, i get free fruit, its not organic, its 2nds, but its FREE! so i make vinegar!
i wash (w/vegi soap) & rinse the fruit very very well. Since i plan to continue making vinegars, i have even made 'socks' from dark cloth to keep each jar dark. So.....Blake, u taught how to make it, now im like the vinegar lady! Thank You.
Thanks to Mrs Corvera also, the teacher who taught me to read, another skill i use a lot.
Thank You to all People who teach others things that make life easier 😘
I'm so glad this is working out for you!
hii Ideal smith,
i made ACV 2 years ago.. i made so many that i kept in cellar to use it
slowly, but after 2 years.. i opened the bottle, the taste changed.. it
taste like no more sour.. but not smelly as well... why ?
i thought acid is suppose to be everlasting thing.. better than wine..
it is the last produce ever evolve.... why my homemade acv lost it
sourness ?
any help will be very much appreciated.
thx
andrew
Ideal Smith this is so beautiful !!!
Hi. I just made my first batch ever of Apple Cider Vinegar. The details were not clear. In terms of what happens when the apple jar is in a dark place for three weeks? When it comes out will that apples have melted down? Will i have just liquid when it is done? . Is the mother similar to the mother you get when you make Kombucha?. Also I used Granny Smith apples. Will it be ok? thank you those are my questions.
@@andrewyek Maybe it became brandy...lol
I will never spend money on Bragg's again. Thanks SO much for this 😄
Keep the cycle going :)
Different techniques, all the variables which determine the final outcome - local climate, wild yeast strains, levels of fructose in the apples, and all the other uncertainties: all of these create the sheer fun of it all. Experimentation is a wonderful way to learn, and thence to pass on what one has learnt for the benefit of others. And thank goodness for that because, like chain stores in malls and along high streets worldwide, homogeneity is the enemy of creativity and freedom. Love your Channel, thank you Blake and family.
I love experiments! Thank you :)
I totally was able to make ACV from Apple pros and cores like 10 years ago. However, since I did not have RUclips or Pinterest to review what I was doing, I had no idea what I had when the mother grew on top. It was a BEAUTIFUL white scoby, but I had no idea what I had. Now I regret so much that I didn’t grasp the beautiful thing I’d created. Put it all into a white, food grade, 5 gallon bucket and left it covered (I think I had a thin tea towel and the lid loosely sitting on top) in the corner of my kitchen floor (our kitchen was naturally darker, too, FYI). That’s it. Worked really well.
I’ve been making my own ACV for a year and each batch tastes different. I’ll always make my own ACV from now on. It’s almost an addiction and I enjoy making my own. 😁 Some of mine are sweeter and others not sweet at all. I actually enjoy the difference and it all depends on the apples, the type of sugar, etc. but as long as my pH shows 3.0-3.5, I know it’s reached the vinegar stage. I was blown away by the mother you had on your ACV. I’ve never had that kind of mother, only the globby formation on the bottom which is good too. I’m glad I found your channel. You are really detailed and thorough in your videos. Thanks!
Thanks for the video - can you give a little bit more information on finishing up the batch? When should you strain the apples? after two weeks? What do you do if the acidity level is not strong enough? Thanks
I didn’t fail on my first attempt. Simply because I put weights on it to keep the apples under the water. The mother has been growing and very pleased. Thank you so much
what did you use as a weight?
B.G. Zeke - I used the lid that came with the round pyrex glass container lid. Its playable so i squeezed it inside and pushed the apples down. To weigh it down some more I put a smaler glass container to keep apples way down. After 3 weeks the mother is sturdy enough to protect the apples on its own. The mother grew on top of the pyrex lid. I removed the mother set it aside so I can remove the pyrex lid that I have underneath the mother. Then I put the mother back very gently not to rip it.
B.G. Zeke - also u can buy fermenting weights on amazon but I dont think i will like it. With pyrex lid I can control the weight depending on how much mother I have growing. The glass jar that I set on top of the pyrex lid has water in it. Every 3-5 days I remove it and dump water out a lil at a time. Depending on how much mother I have so far.
Thank you for that! Questions were answered, much appreciated for such a quick response, we love ya DK! Thanks for caring, sharing and spreading the love! Enjoy each other.
+miz sterious I may have missed something, bis all I could think of based on the questions being asked :)
Loved this topic and video! Would love more kitchen videos with daddykirbs and Angie! Love what y'all are doing on your homestead-an inspiration for sure
+Amy Quillin I have several kitchen videos to do, but I really got to get out in the garden soon too! :)
I never thought of saving thr peeling and cores I the freezer...THANKYOU.
It's a good way to keep them until you have enough and you are ready to get it done :)
So glad you mentioned not blending the apples. I was thinking it would be quicker to ferment that way! Great video. Thank you. I make kombucha and was wondering if a kombucha scoby can be used?
There is no problem with blending but you would have to stir it every day to avoid mold growth, I made vinegar twice and both were great in taste and texture
I watched a few videos on making vinegar before I fell on Your video, and gave it a try. You made it feel really achievable! Once my scobe didn't start forming like I thought it would, I came black to RUclips to see what I did wrong and fell on your collaboration video with J&J Acres and it made me feel so much better. Then I read through the comments and found you both discussing it! This is by far the collaboration I have seen on RUclips! Thank you guys both for helping me make vinegar!! :D
I'm glad you made it over here to the Daddykirbs Farm! Good luck with the ACV :)
This video and your other video are super helpful thank you. I make kombucha continuously. I didn't realize the process was basically the same for ACV. Im starting this when I get home from work!
If you've got a flower frog, you can sanitize it and sit it on top of your apples. It'll help keep them under the water. You can never sanitize anything plastic well enough to use for a weight.
Hi, I've been watching you for quite awhile now. Your presentation is really getting good! Keep the vids coming...You are developing your communication skills and your comfortable self assurance as a narrator is coming across more and more! Thanks for this video especially. I have a fridge crisper full of apples that we did not eat because they weren't as good as expected. I was needing to do something with them so they don't go to waste. Your Apple Cider Videos have inspired me to turn them to vinegar! Thank you Blake!
Thank you so much for the encouraging words! ...and go make CIDER!! :)
I sure do love your videos. You have a great way of explaining everything and it really inspires me to try new things. I'm going to share this!
Thank you for the positive comment ;)
Thank you for sharing. I am learning so much here...I have made kombucha now I started my first batch of Apple cider vinegar. Keep sharing
This follow up video hit all the points I wanted and then some. I was thinking that if I ran everything through the blender then it would work better. Glad to see that I can learn from your mistakes. Thanks for a quick and easy to understand video... Now i just need to try it myself. Thanks for sharing.
The blender trick may work really well if you are using some sort of fermenting air lock system, but for the normal jar in a pantry method I think the chunks are better.
Hi Blake. Glad I found you on RUclips. I have been making ACV and love the result.
I didn't realize that you can put the "mother" with the apple pieces and leave it for a month. So I am trying it this way to see what happens. Thanks for your videos. Kevin.
Life is most fun with experiments :) I'm glad you found me here!
So, I can use a mother to start a new batch of ACV? I'm just clarifying.
I got a lot of apples lately and put all of them in jars. I decided to use the peels and cores to make vinegar. I started 4 different batches (it really was a lot of apples 😋), but only the smallest one developed mother. Even though I need to toss the other three I am still really proud of myself 😊 Thank you so much for this video ❤️ I will definetely check more out 😁
I am going to make some ACV as soon as I get more apples, but I thought I would share a tip . I made some fermented salsa and had to keep the salsa below the liquid line, so I cut a piece of plastic canvas the size of the outside diameter of the jar lid. When I put it on top of the salsa, I pushed it below the liquid and it was a perfect fit. It will be awhile before I make my ACV, but I think this idea will work for ACV also. Love your videos.
Because of this great idea I began keeping the peels and cores of apples since yesterday. THNKU Blake! Hope to have my own organic vinegar. Another thumb up for your great vids
+Dekel Chile you won't regret it ;)
I take apple cider vinegar every day, in spring water, for my health. It prevents muscle cramps, which I get all-too-frequently, due to a physical injury to my leg... Up to now, it has been a costly remedy - now? Easy-peasy, so happy! Thanks for this video, brilliant. PS: When you don't want your home any more, please can I have it? Just drop me a line when you're done. Thanks!
Thank u so much!!! Aside from the pricy of ACV in the store it helps us mothers to save dollars and not only that it’s very useful and healthy!!! Thank U so much will start saving my apple peels
You can do it!
Hi Blake. I used to live on a small holding for many years. How great that was. I see your family are having fun with all your animals.
I have just made a batch of fermented cucumbers and sauerkraut, came out great. My kombucha is growing nicely too. Once again, glad I found you. I like interesting people. Haven't watched all your videos but am going too. Thanks again. Kevin.
Fermenting foods is on my long list of things to learn. I have done a few experiments but nothing to big yet. Thanks for joining me!
Hi Blake, I'd like to know what you did with that large jar of pears you said you were going to bottle. K
Kevin Holman I canned them, but didn't get a video done about it :)
Great info really like your presentation, clear and concise no stumbling keep up the good work! I am starting my 1st. Batch today.Thank you!
Two great videos there- but I notice you also have a video up about Kombucha. Now I’ve been making Kombucha for a while and I’m wondering if I could start off ACV with some discard Kombucha scoby?
I just failed at making the vinegar. No mother and My organic apples kind of fell apart. That's okay because I put your channel on and I'm going to make it your way. If you don't have anything to talk about someday do two videos one on medicinal uses for apple cider vinegar and one for cleaning and other uses. I just watched your pumpkin seed video now i'm looking all over for pumpkins. Thanks for all the great videos.
Thank you for the suggestions and thank you for following along with the Daddykirbs Farm Story!
I have an surplus of mother’s , what is the best way to store and keep them happily fed I need them. Thank you Trish
My mother makes raw pineapple cider vinegar, at a sweet point before becomes a vinegar it can get a second fermentation just like Kambucha.
I love doing all this stuff. Sourdough starter is also great fun! Thanks Blake! Oh - just answered my other question too!!!
+FlowerGrower Smith maybe someday I'll tackle that one too ;)
Thank you, by far the best in presenting videos your fast and to the point. You are made for this!
MI Gardener just had a video using juiced apples without any solids and he literally just adds about 2 tablespoons of sugar and then lets it sit. The only other thing he does is stir it every 2-3 days until it smells like vinegar. He says he never gets mold on his that way.
Thank you so much for sharing us your knowledge and experience! I have a pleasant time watching your videos. Blessings!
also how come everybody said making vinegar has to have wine first ? since we can use sugar water to make vinegar ?...
Ive let my Kombutcha go to Vinegar a few times. Altho Kombutcha is tea based i second fermented mine w fruit sooo Vinegar is vinegar Anything w a sugar and fruit base will make vinegar 🤗. .. Just aboit no end w the possibilities ✌️💝👍
Finally someone explains it simple, short, but still detailed enough. Great video 1st and 2nd. Thank you much!
my pleasure. Glad it helped!
Stir a couple of times a day. If you don’t see a lot of bubbles, add some more sugar. Don’t worry it won’t be sweet in the end.
Thank you, I am so looking forward to trying and taste my own ACV, love your whole family, and all the good things you do. Saw your kumbucha video and been making kumbucha . Look forward to your videos.
Thank you for being here with me :)
Recipe and positive attitude is just wonderful. Thank you.
😉 I THINK I HAVE A MOTHER!!!!!!!!!!
😄😃😀😊☺😉
HURRAY!!!
thank u Blake 😊
Thank You ☺
Success!!
Congratulations! How long did it take?
how long did it take and did you do it like blake?
becksta29
☺ i am anna, HONESTLY!
yes i did it exactly as Blake instructed, i strain out the fruit after 30 days, and then, the mother started to form within 2 days. i have made 6 batches since this, & it always works for me.
Blake is Great!
Blake for President!!!!
☺
G-Huong Tiana ☺ for me, i can see the mother start to form about 2 days after i strain the fruit out.
I read "no mother necessary", i said whoo, she gets on my nerve when we do projects together.😣
🤣
😂🤣😂
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video! I've been looking all over youtube for awhiie for the best method, and understandable instructions for acv, and I think I've found it here.
I've been making sauercraut for several years, and I find that I have best outcome when I float a ziplock bag of water (or brine incase the bag leaks) on the top of the cabbage to keep it submerged. keeping the oxygen out. Could you do this with the apples, and therefore not have to stir it daily, (or like maybe not ever?) in the month or so before you strain out the apples? Once again, thank you so much.\, and many blessings to you and your family!
I do that with kraut as well... I hadn't thought of it for the apples. That might work nicely.
Greatly informative video Blake, starting my first batch of ACV today!!!!
Happy fermenting!
Hey Blake bro. try dates vinegar.thats what we make here in middle east too..amazing taste super easy too,no sugar needed
This is my first time, I don't have a mother and in Ireland even the supermarkets don't have Apple Cider vinegar for sale so I have to try for he first batch but thanks for the help!
Thank you. Your instructions are very clear and easy to understand.
Thanks for getting to the point and not over talking it.
alternative approach: Go get some grocery store apple cider and put a little Braggs ACV in it, cover it with towel and let it ferment. Good enough for us non-purists.
You mention a couple issues.
1) oxidation - mold-
apples above the water exposed to o2 allows mold to grow if you dont stir
* why dont you add h2o to completely cover the apples?
2) scoby - starter ACV w/ mother
you suggest alternatives for starter
Add sugar
* can you start with aged apples?
* use apples with highest natural sugar as in apes that have passed beyond firm ripeness.
3) fermentation process-
Can you add yeast to supplement the process ..would tgat soeed hp the natural sugar and/ or addl sugar?
IF so what amts for addl sugar ..yeast? And how would that change the timeline abd gow its managed ?
Driving stresses me out lol and I stay very focused so when I see someone recording when they drive for some reason I start to feel uneasy 😂 thanks for the Video!
I no longer record anything while driving. Thank you for that feedback. I really appreciate you being here to be a part of my story.
Thanks good! Gotta be safe out there!
@@daddykirbs is it ok to store in plastic containers
@@louiseivey9156 as a general rule, no.
Thankyou I've been stirring mine everyday and had no mother on top but do have bottom of white stuff and its 2 weeks along and smelling vinegary
Mine has been sitting I'm checking if I did everything right again lol.... It's looking good
I cut them up added water and sugar... I kept the apples under the water with a weight....a couple peices are at the top... I was thinking on removing them ones on top... Will do today when I give it a look...
Thank you so much for your videos! I just finished my first round of kombucha and it is delicious!! I have a batch of ACV going now with your directions. My issue is that I am not sure that my apples were organic. I have a white film developing on the bottom of my container. Is that the mother growing or could that be residue from nonorganic apples? Thank you so much!!!
It's hard to say for sure but I'm going to be positive and say it's your MoV forming :) congrats!
Thanks for the video guys very appreciated
+Lucian Franetovic you bet! Hope it helped.
How long does the completed apple cider vinegar last after its completed? Shelf life?
Hello 👋🏼! Hey I have made apple cider vinegar followed your recipe 🙏🏽 and came out absolutely awesome 👏🏽! Now I want to make pomegranate vinegar is it the same process? Thank you 🙏🏽
Your homestead looks cleaner and more organized now. I didnt recognize the place.
+dan Hamakua we keep working on it!
Looks great.
Thank you so much.... this is just what i was looking for.
You are so welcome :)
Hii Daddykirbs Farm,
i made ACV 2 years ago.. i made so many that i kept in cellar to use it slowly, but after 2 years.. i opened the bottle, the taste changed.. it taste like no more sour.. but not smelly as well... why ?
i thought acid is suppose to be everlasting thing.. better than wine.. it is the last produce ever evolve.... why my homemade acv lost it sourness ?
your advice will be very much appreciated.
thx
andrew
I think you allowed bactiria to breath after making vinegar.
I've read that same bactiria also converts acetic acid(sour flavor) to carbon dioxide and water.
So, keep the vinegar air tight after making it.
*I've been trying to include apple cider vinegar into my routine for ages, but the taste just made it so hard. Goli Gummies really were a game changer for me* 🍎
i have a quart of what i call grannies lemonade in the fridge year-round. i make 1c water 1T RACV and a bit of raw honey if needed. it is really tasty w/o the sweetener when diluted right. the thing about the name; in pioneer days not many had lemons but everyone had RAVC. and this kind of tastes like lemonade when done properly. try the dilution till u get a taste YOU like. cheers
I have a couple of last questions that you may or may not have a thought on. I live in San Diego and my water is tap water (chlorinated). Would you recommend leaving the water out overnight to off gas before mixing everything together. When my mom used to make dill pickles she would put a plate on top to hold everything under the surface, would that help in this? Thanks again, have a great day!
If I had a crock where a plate would fit in... it might work pretty good. I have chlorinated water too and haven't noticed an issue with that.
Thanks. Great presentation. You covered everything I needed to know.
Great video. I was wondering the same thing.
I think you have a smoke alarm that needs a new battery...
+Brandon's Bees haha, yes I do need to get that battery replaced.
@@daddykirbs I kept thinking it was mine!! LOL
You are not home but in heaven man, Amazing place 🙏
Thank you, I'm gonna give it a try👌🏻thank you again 😉
Love your video😉
You're welcome and Thank you :)
Thanks for the really clear instructions, Blake :) I've got crabapples in the garden, so I'm going to give it a try.... I also just checked my bottle of store bought ACV, and.... ta dah... it IS raw organic and contains the mother!!! I've bought that brand for years and it's the first time I noticed that!!!
Question: where do I keep the mother to use for next year once I'm done with this year's harvest? Thanks again :)
I'd keep the MoV in a jar of vinegar. It should store for a good long time. I'm so glad you find my video helpful for your projects!
@@daddykirbs 4 days on and my vinegar is always starting to smell nice and a thin film is developing on top... good times!! Another question, I've boiled up some crabapples and have strained some nice pink juice from it - can I make vinegar with that juice (instead of water) with the same method? Thanks again Blake!!
@@daddykirbs Hi Blake, can I store MoVs from different homemade vinegars together or should I keep them separate? I have also started some with other fruits and leftover white wine and some with leftover red wine, but I started them all with MoV from the storebought raw ACV (UK, Aspalls brand). Thanks and best to you all.
I made my acv it turned out great. I don't know how to store it now that it is made. I left it in the cupboard and the mother continues to grow and the jar lids bulge and I have to release pressure every 3 weeks or so. Where do I store it? I made 3 gallons thinking it would get me through the year but I am affraid it will go bad.
+Kathryn Perkins you can leave it in the pabtry for a while as long as it can breathe. Otherwise put it in quart jars with lids and put it in the fridge.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. I made it twice but it never gets the level of acidity as the one I get in the suprmarket, why is that? thank you
I have to go back and watch the original video. Thanks for sharing.
Good luck with the ACV!
This guy is awesome! Learning a lot with him!
Thank you :)
Thank you for your guidance . First time making acv. I did everything you said to do. Except I left in jar for more than 2 weeks and after straining thru a cheese cloth there was apple mush on the bottom a clear yellow liquid on top. It smells like vinegar and is mild in flavor. What do I do now? Should I keep stirring every other day cover with cloth for one month and then what?
Once the apple cider vinegar is done processing it won't spoil because it's so acidic, right? Is it best to keep a lid on it?
+Kveldsmat when not refrigerated I let it breathe. If in the refrigerator I cap it.
I have a question. did you try juicing the fermented chopped apples to extract vinegar instead of giving them to the chickens? I did it and i loved the flavour of this more than the vinegar itself.
I have not tried it. That sounds very interesting :)
Thanks for the tips!
We have a batch breewing up right now, so We'll try not to forget about it! ;)
I'll be ready to hear how that Norwegian Vinegar works out!
Hi.. thanks for shearing this video. I tried 2-3 times to make viniger but it doesn't worked.. I saw many videos and I read many recipes but I didn't undrestand what I have to do... I have many questions.. I just ask 2 of tham.. 1. How many days appel, suger and water shuld be in the jaar? 2. How many days after slicing vinegar from apples.. the viniger should stay and it becomes real viniger? Thank you
It all depends on your specific conditions. Making vinegar can take several weeks or months. In the beginning before you have a good Mother to keep the top safe from mold you need to make sure you are pushing those apple pieces down under the water. Keep smelling the brew. When it reaches the alcohol stage it will smell like cider. After that it will start to turn to vinegar. Be patient. you can do this!
Hi Blake,
I am currently curious about making ACV at home. So watched numerous video about that including yours before making mine. I have seen diffrent recipies including a tea spoon salt (preferably rock salt). Your recepies does not include that. Is salt necessary and what its function that in making ACV. Many thanks
I've never used salt and my ACV turns out fine :)
How much vinegar with Mother should be added to first 1 gallon batch? Can't wait to try my first batch! tomorrow. Love your videos.
i understand better how to make it because of you! could you show us how to make homemade coconut oil ?? thankyou!!!!
I have no experience with coconut oil. I'm glad the ACV video helped!
Thanks. A lot of videos don't explain how you get the mother. Which is where the benefit is. If your first batch only has a 50/50 outcome. Wouldn't it just be easier to use the first batch for the purpose of collecting the mother. Then add the mother from the first batch to your actual cider vinegar?
Hi all I have few apple trees large quantity apple, can I use plastic container or it has to be made of glass.
Glass or ceramic is better. There is a chance that the acid in the vinegar will pull out some of the chemicals in the plastic.
How do you take out the AcV from the big jar with apples? Do you take out apple chunks or take out Vinegar and bottle it in smaller bottles? What can you do with those apple pieces which were making the ACV? How do you make sure that you get the mother also in your ACV, since that is very beneficial.
to stop mould accruing can you use a brewing bucket with air lock to keep the air away??
This is the video I am looking for. Thank you
I'm glad you found it! Share it with your friends :)
HI Blake. Thanks for your kind help. CAn you please help? I see the colour of Braag ACV is darker than ACV we make at home and our is less acidic than braag. Please how to make more acidic each batch ? Even after 6 to 8 weeks it is not much acidic
Can crabapples (the big ones ) be used? Just moved and saw that we had Apple trees and was excited but they are just big crabapples. They are so tart that I can't think of anything else to use then for. Thanks for the videos!
Yes they can! I would love to have a crab apple tree :)
Sir thanks for your video. But you said I can blend one or two apples and add to the cut apples that it help me to start with if I do not have the acv that have the mother in it
Hello sir... great video thank you for the clear instructions but the problem I couldn't start the process because I don't have a mother vinegar because it's not available in my place. thank you
You CAN start vinegar with no mother. Just assemble it like I described and keep it stirred for the first few weeks. It will turn to vinegar if you can keep the mold out of it.
Why is homemade vinegar much lighter (and weaker in smell) than shop bought vinegar?
Hi Blake!
I would like to know: like I seen in your video, you keep the apples all the long time process?
I have try a first try in March. After one month, I'm remove the chunks apples and then a put my cider in the pantry again (I have a mother now, whoooot whoot!). But' I can keep my apples all the long time process right? Now I have my scoby?
Thank you!!
You can keep the apples in there or strain them out. Either way has worked for me.
Blake,
I also live in San Antonio and wish to pick your brain or even better yet, watch you make ACV. I am very interested in learning your craft.
Thanks in advance,
Paul
I've talked about doing classes but haven't found the time LOL
If you ever do - or have a chance for VERY cheap labor in the process - I would gladly assist in an effort to learn. Please keep that in mind.

Paul
head over to the FB and follow facebook.com/daddykirbsfarm Let me know when you are there. I have a local group I'll invite you too. It's not crazy active but it will give us a better way to connect.
Blake,
Thanks for the reply. I do not have a FB account.
Thanks.
Paul
I made this for the first time from all the peels and cores from Apple butter. I covered with fabric, saw bubbles, decanted after 6 weeks and put in dark cardboard for dark but left fabric cloth.
Ive 3 jars with a mother floating just above the bottom in several layers. But it's only barely acidic.
I live in southern England.
I'd love advice for how to fix this.
I do have a brief video showing my jars.
It looks like I have a healthy mother growing in my pear vinegar. It is still quite thin. I am wondering how much longer to let it grow and if I should strain the vinegar yet. It's been over three weeks and I still have the pear chunks in the vinegar.
How do you know there's mold in it, is it visible Mold, and what if you don't get the mother. Love your videos🥰👍👍
Great presentation. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for this video and your kombucha video, you explain things very well - you don't complicate things, you are right to the point. Q. can I use my scoby sitting in the hotel from kombucha?
first appreciate of all your video and than i have question , can i make apple cider vinegar with mother of kombucha . thank you
Hi Blake, thanks for another awesome video. Also, I checked out your Patreon page and it’s very inspiring and encouraging. We’re so glad we met you and can call you friend. ♥️katie
How much store bought acv do you add to start your scoby? Then once you have the scoby can it be used for kombucha as well? Ty I'm new to fermenting and excited to learn but don't have a scoby now access.
Hi Blake, thanks for all your help, great videos. , first off I want to thank you for the video, quick ? just wondering when I make a batch after about 3 days I start getting great reaction lots of bubbles, after about 2 weeks the bubbles start going away is this a normal process or should you have bubbles for the whole 4 weeks of the process? Thanks again for all your help.
