Question about brewing Kombucha?!


Question: Question about brewing Kombucha!?
I am about to start brewing kombucha for the first time!. What I don't understand is how you repeat the process!.!. What do you do with the pancake culture thing!? You use that one up and a new one forms on the top of the jar each time you brew!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
The pancake or mushroom colony (zoogleal mat) will grow over a couple weeks each time you add fresh tea with sugar to it!. You can then take slices of it and add to new jars to make more Kombucha!. Once it gets too big, or you feel like cutting back, just keep a small portion to innocculate your next batch, and throw away the old "pancake/mushroom"!. That small sample will grow back up like the first one did as you feed it more tea!. I knew someone who's mom was given a cultured piece from someone she knew, it looked disgusting and I refused to drink any of it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
